Picasa Worry

Hi Everyone

I am new so bear with me I have noticed many people recommending Picasa which is great I use it and I think it is the best free photo editing softeware out there and so easy to use but be careful because it does scan all your private folders unless you set it to do otherwise which is a little worrying.

 

TO STOP Picasa scanning all your private files go into picasa click on tools at top of page then go into folder manager there you can choose which folders you want Picasa to scan just highlight the folder and click remove from Picasa.

 

Hope this helps

Hi Steve,

"Someone" has been reading the forums. This is "Gooood".

They also took the time to point out another product that does some scanning and probably some "indexing" also.

Thanks a lot, Steve!!!
