Re: Large Files from WYSIWYG
What makes you think they are from wwb?
I'd be amazed if they had anything to do with wwb.
Do the dates modified/accessed give you any clue?
Which folder within appdata are they in?

Re: Large Files from WYSIWYG
Because the name at the end of each line after the dot is a file name of websites created by WSIWYG. Also when you click in the folders they are images used in the websites, but many copies over.
it is in the root of appdata/local

Re: Large Files from WYSIWYG
That’s fascinating!!
I think we need Pablo’s input on this.

Re: Large Files from WYSIWYG
Because I think it will be asked... what is your system folder under options > files and folders?

Re: Large Files from WYSIWYG
It may be related to the 'Auto Recovery' functionality in Tools -> Options -> Backup
The files are not created by WWB, but it is that Windows makes a copy of memory on disk.

Re: Large Files from WYSIWYG
Hi, The system folder i have entered is
D:\OneDrive\Documents\WYSIWYG Web Builder
I did switch on that auto recovery the other day, it might be the cause of it, i will switch it off and see what happens and report back.

Re: Large Files from WYSIWYG
I switched it off in the setting and went and manually deleted the folders from the appdata. i regained 196GB. i will see how it goes and whether they return or not
