Clearing Personal storage files on Live USB Precise 5.7.1
Posted: Thu 28 Feb 2019, 00:42
Hi,
I run Precise 5.7.1 off a usb flash drive - no save file - I just load it and run and put things on as I need them from pets (eg avidemux/vlc/synfig etc)
On and off my personal storage file 1.0 mb alloted gets full and the icon to the bottom left of the screen flashes red. Very ominous!
I have read that I should clear my browser cache - I use pale moon for the most part and sometimes Google Chrome through a pet - but even if I clear the caches it doesn't seem to help.
I uninstall whatever I have installed and still - nothing. I might gain some space back but sometimes like today - nothing. OM available.
What else can I do - or where else should I be looking for files tha are clogging up this space? Is it maybe some virus that got downloaded?
In any case I end up rebooting which solves the issue since it's a live USB Precise with no savefile but it would be nice not to have to reboot.
Thanks.![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)
