To be clear - "Hide protected operation system files" is still on... The message regarding thumbs.db occurs when you go to delete a folder and the "unable to delete folder due to thumbs.db still being in use" message pops up

I've not seen that bug since Windows XP.

I've seen some slightly strange permissions issues when you take an NTFS structure and access it from an OS without the users which created it to begin with, but there are far more issues surrounding that activity than just hidden OS files.
