How much Cache to you bring up before removing pior to free space

theFOoL · Jul 6, 2017

Hi,

Using Browser Opera and I got 30.5GB of Cache so I was just wondering how much y'all have? Using program Ccleaner

Also from program SuperAnti-Spyware doing a scan for cookies to delete and will it free space? Just wondering as I bet it will.... It* Didn't... :nutkick:

Guessing you don't save/restore on exit?

30GB , holy crap that's a lot.

Antiviruses should not delete cache.

It's spyware program not AVAST! (AKA Anti-Virus software)

Not sure what you mean.
I didn't "cleanup" the temporary files for a while, I just did.

I make restore points before installing important updates only.

cookies are tiny little text files...wont make much of a difference. But, in cleanup, windows shows how much.

Meant by Restoring Section when you close the Browser... :wtf:

and System Restore if not done Manually wastes space... :pimp:

I mostly have 6 browser tabs open.
Yes I make restore points manually, I used to do it as well before installing a new display driver update but when restoring to get back the previous driver I noticed the display driver installation gets borked somehow after a system restore so I'm not making restore points anymore before I install a new display driver, just doing clean install with all display drivers now whether installing older or the latest.

Well if it's spyware still probably not.

Just noticed Cookies are just Small TxT Files :roll:

and I'll wait to clear Cache when I need to. Not Hurting anything...

When I feel that I have to make a Restore point and all is good I first turn OFF System Restore then reboot turn it back on and create a new System Restore.....Or it gets needlessly big.
