Can I delete Temp files?
This is a dumb question...I just found 1000s of images (bitmaps and jpegs) in the Temp folder of my Portable MM install. They are album covers that are already embedded in tracks. Can I delete these?

Yes you can. The folders that say MMCache.......
But they will regenerate whenever you play files with artwork again.

Interesting, thank you. At least I can delete them before I backup MM to another drive and save some space.MMFrLife wrote:Yes you can. The folders that say MMCache.......

1) You can move the Temp folder (Tools > Options > General) so that any backups don't include it.
2) You can remove the MMCache******_* folders, but they'll be recreated each time you view Artwork in MediaMonkey. They're used for a faster display of Artwork.

I just deleted 3,5 GB (!!!) of files in these folders. This stuff might have gotten a bit out of hand, and I would like to deactivate that feature.
