Yes, you can delete these files from disk, outside of the application interface.The faster the disk, the quicker AE can write frames to the cache and load the frames back into memory for playback, thus the more useful the disk cache becomes. If you do change the location, favor a fast disk with a reasonable amount of space. From this preference panel, you can also disable the cache, change the limit on how much disk space is used, or change the location it is stored.You can empty it from within AE by going to Preferences > Media & Disk Cache, then click the Empty Disk Cache button.Would anyone have a comment?Ī few points about the After Effects disk cache: This is not the first time I've noticed Adobe applications start to eat mysteriously hd-space, but it is the first time I'm able to locate where and from which process. Now, I suppose (but don't know) that this folder can be deleted without any harm? Secondly, I would expect After Effects or Premiere Pro to be able to find and empty these caches on demand.
So, I found them with a laborous manual search. That cache does not get emptied from anywhere in After Effects, selecting to empty the caches in AE does not remove them. To a folder called: "Adobe After Effects Disk Cache.
Users//Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/11.0 What I found, that at least when I select clip(s) in Premiere Pro and make then an Adobe Dynamic Link => New After Effects Composition, this procedure starts to pile cache files to a location:
They eat a lot of hd-space (multitude of GigaBytes). I have a "problem" with After Effects disk caches that don't get emptied from the application itself, but have to be emptied manually.
