How to fix Creator’s update 2 thumbnail cache keeps deleting?

Solution:

Firstly, try to reset thumbnail cache folder. If the deleting thumbnail cache files method doesn’t work for you then try following:

Windows 8 or later versions come with a new Automatic maintenance service which deletes unnecessary files regularly. This service might also delete thumbnail cache files.

↣ Press Win+R Key to open RUN dialog box.
type taskschd.msc in RUN box > press Enter
Task Scheduler program appears. Go to Task Scheduler  Library > Microsoft > Windows > TaskScheduler

On the right hand side, you will see below options

↣ Idle Maintenance
↣ Manual Maintenance
↣ Regular Maintenance
↣ Maintenance Configurator

You need to disable following options

↣ Manual Maintenance
↣ Idle Maintenance
↣ Regular Maintenance

Right click on the task and select Disable option

If “Maintenance Configurator” re-enable other 3 task, you have to delete all 4 tasks. To delete select all task and hit Delete.

If you are unable to delete above tasks then following below steps

↣ Open RUN dialog box
↣ Type tasks then Enter> Permissions related message shows> click on Continue. It will open C:\Windows\System32\Tasks Folder.
↣  Go to Microsoft\ Windows\ TaskScheduler folder & delete all 4 tasks.

Now, you have disabled Windows Automatic Maintenance Service
