0.86: Delete export image temp files

Post by Tup3x »

Currently Xnview MP always saves Export previews to Windows temp folder (AppData\Local\Temp) but it doesn't look like it never deletes them. It would be nice if there would be option to clear them after you close the export window. Another option would be to use RAM as cache instead (less writing for SSD).

+1

Files are exported to %TEMP% directory as soon as XnView calculates the size. I.e. if you click through all the tabs you have 9 temporary files, already.

Played a bit with really high resolution images and boom, temp folder is full of ~32 MB files. This is also somewhat a privacy related question too since those images are easily receivable.
