Realtime Gadget Temp files.
Posted: Sat 20 Jul 2013 12:17 pm
Hi all,
I'm using the realtime gadget (lastest version) and have been for quite some time...
I was poking around under the bonnet of windows (like you do when sorting out MS issues..) and bumped into a huge pile of realtime.txt?uid=<nnnn> in temp internet files...
when I mean huge.. I mean huge.. best part of one million of 'em...
I don't use IE for day to day work, so have no need to purge the cache etc, and I'm not so keen on so called "windows cleaners" as they -can- upset windeeze if left to their own devices.
However, it seems that said gadget dosen't do any house keeping. hence the huge pile of temp files
Windows is now chomping through that lot to empty IE's cache...
Just a bit of extra info the gadget users...
