What is a THUMB6 file?

THUMB6 files mostly belong to XnViewMP. A THUMB6 file is a JPEG thumbnail used by image management software to store a small preview of a photo.
These files are generated in JPEG format, which means they use the same compression as standard JPG images.

They are usually created automatically by applications like XnViewMP.

They serve to quickly display image previews without loading full-size files.

The name THUMB6 hints at a specific version or style of thumbnail cache used internally.

FilExt.com tip: This type of file lets the software avoid repeatedly processing large images when browsing through folders or galleries.
