On first use, at the point that templates are initialised, if a file in an
unexpected format is found a dialog box opens asking the user to choose a
converter. One type of file that might quite often be found in Windows is
Thumbs.db, a hidden file in which Windows stores information to help it display
the Thumbnails folder view. If a file of this format is present in the template
path, the dialog box is opened. It isn't obvious what to do - maybe there should
be a 'don't convert' option?

It would be better to ignore this specific file and thus not confuse users, many
of whom will not see the file because its properties include 'hidden'.
