Hi,

I notice on my windows 7 system there are a lot (3624 for now) of files in my user's "AppData\Local\Godot" directory, it doesn't looks like to be beta specific as the oldest are dated back Nov 11th last year and are named like

All those files are never, I guess, removed, both upon Godot editor quit or game closed. Some of them looks like to be duplicate.

Does this files should be removed one day or another ?
Could they be safely deleted without creating issue with Godot ? (I have already encountered poorly designed programs which rely on files located in windows temp folder !)

Thanks.

I'd like to know too. Up

trizZzle Isn't that what the .godot is supposed to be for?

    I don't know how the .godot and the obove mentioned folders are being used by Godot. I can only guess.
    I only know that the .godot folder is seperat for each project and the user cache is not.
    My user cache contains files from different projects. My guess it that those files should be deleted when Godot quits but when crashing they won't.

    Maybe I'll do some research if I have some time. 🔍️
