QuickLook thumbnails.data, Flushing thumbnails, Clear recent Exposé thumbnails in Preview, Preview recent files
The file is located under:
/private/var/folders/<random>/<random>/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache
For example on my mac book pro:
ljackson@Lukes-MBP 10:51:54 /private/var/folders> sudo find . | grep QuickLook ./zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache ./zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache/exclusive ./zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache/index.sqlite ./zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache/index.sqlite-shm ./zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache/index.sqlite-wal ./zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache/thumbnails.data ./zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache/thumbnails.fraghandler ljackson@Lukes-MBP 10:52:16 /private/var/folders> sudo su - Lukes-MBP:~ root# cd /private/var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache Lukes-MBP:com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache root# ll total 184 -rw------- 1 root wheel 0B Mar 2 2016 exclusive -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 56K Nov 13 2016 index.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 32K Nov 13 2016 index.sqlite-shm -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0B Nov 13 2016 index.sqlite-wal -rw------- 1 root wheel 0B Nov 13 2016 thumbnails.data -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 350B Mar 2 2016 thumbnails.fraghandler Lukes-MBP:com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache root#
