Hi,
Is there a way to stop a folder being scanned by Photos?
I have a folder "SlideME" (from android dual boot) which has toward 300 little icon which are appearing in my Photo's app and clogging it up.
I don't want to delete the folder.
Thanks!
Therefore, if you put your folder inside "Temp" then the icons should not appear.

It allows you to configure the media tracker and the directories it catalogs.
Take care.

The problem is I don't know how find where this images are stored. Many of them are actually from themes. Any tip?
