How to cancel import scanning when Picasa start


picasaI feel very irritating whenever i start Picasa as i’ll see Picasa scan all my folder to import new images. There’s no way for me to cancel the import scanning. After some research, there is a setting to limit the folder for import scanning every time Picasa start. Just few clicks in the settings and you are done.

To cancel import scanning when Picasa start, follow the instruction below:-

    While it is nice of you to share this, it is only half useful: The menu can only be reached after scanning has already started. I need to start Picasa without it even starting to scan anything. How? Apparently there is no way. Evil.
