It's a big problem, because I have an add-on in my .adds directory that includes a lot of thumbnails, which now dominate my library.

I tried doing a search, but it's sort of difficult to search for. Does anyone know when this change happened or if there's a workaround?
The first thing to do is make a backup of all of your .directories as once you sort this out, the content will be deleted. The next thing to do is read the following thread completely as it gives two solutions and you need to read to find both of them.
