Download scratchthumbs.db Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying scratchthumbs.db to your appropriate Windows system directory. Scratch typically does not release Scratch DB files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing scratchthumbs.db and all other DB files for Scratch. An incorrectly installed DB file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
