Not sure if that applies here.

Method 1
To clear the thumbnails cache on a Windows 10 system, follow these instructions:
1 - Open Windows Explorer
2 - Go to the View tab
3 - Select Hidden items, then select Show selected items
4 - Navigate to C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer, where C:\ is where you
installed Windows 8 or 8.1 and User is the username of your account profile.If Windows 8 or 8.1 was installed on D:\ and your username is Anna, the path you need to navigate to is:
D:\Users\Anna\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer
5 - Select all files that begin with thumbcache
6 - Right-click these files and click Delete
7 - Empty the Recycle Bin
Hope this helps.
