Media cache files...

[UlfLaursen]

Hi

I have a folder on my C-drive under application data\adobe\common\ called "media cache files". There is a huge amount of data in that folder.

Can I put it somewhere else, and is it safe to empty it once in a while?

Thanks.

Yes, you can: Preferences -> Media

But there should be reason why... <img src="http://www.kolobok.us/smiles/standart/dntknw.gif">

Thanks - not 100% sure what you mean with "but there should be reason why".

My folder holds 74 GB data now - can I just clean it out?

Thanks.

Sweet cat btw.

Render Files for your projects are stored there.

If you are sure you want to clean them up, choose Sequence -> Delete Render Files or Sequence -> Delete Work Area Render Files so as to do it safely.

See "Move or clean the media cache database".
