[SOLVED]Downloaded image files from drive & now gthumb & pix crash

When opening *.png files (or a png file when opening a directory) downloaded from drive.google.com (using mygoogle.google.com)

(gthumb:35345): GVFS-WARNING **: 11:26:51.214: can't init metadata tree /home/ljohnson/.local/share/gvfs-metadata/home: wrong magic
libpng error: Not a PNG file
Aborted (core dumped)

Aborted (core dumped)

Opening a specific PNG file from download works (as well as opening in gimp)

[--ljohnson{11:44:00}Desktop]$ gthumb /home/ljohnson/Desktop/_COLLECTION/_GALLERY/59e671092f2d9211008b4576.png

If it is a bad PNG file in a directory, how do I find it..?

Re: [SOLVED]Downloaded image files from drive & now gthumb & pix crash

strace pointed to offending file(s) which was (were) in .../thumbnails/

Deleted all in .../thumbnails/*
No more crashes

Thanks, seth
