archive

Our company uses Symantec Enterprise Vault to archive network folders and files, presumably to save on disk space. I can't see any other benefits.

Our company is an architectural firm, and the problem our users face is locating particular images in network folders. Because all the files are archived, Windows Explorer is unable to generate image thumbnails. Each image needs to be individually restored from archive by double-click before it can be viewed. This is a big time-waster for our architects.

Symantec say there is no workaround for this.

Does anyone know of an alternative we could use for archiving images?

Alternatively, some batch utility to create and maintain a thumbs.db file in each folder?

Thanks.
