Adobe Firefly permanently using huge amounts of disk space (desktop Firefox)

Been using Firefly (image generation) for a few hours today via desktop version of Firefox. About 200gb of free disk space vanished during that time. I already cleared all the cache files for the website via Firefox settings but this was just about 1.5gb of data. Please fix that asap and let me (us) know how to get that disk space back.

 

Not my post but describes the issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/17ygj4p/one_tab_eating_up_all_the_free_disk_space/

 

Thank you!

Hello Cmass,

 

sorry for coming back so late. The problem solved itself but i could not figure out how and forgot to let you know. Several system restarts might just have done the trick as i took no further actions. I also did not experiece that issue at a later time when using the tool. So it might also have been an internal problem that got solved in the meantime.

 

To answer your question nevertheless: i did use around 20 or 30 favorites in total i think, which i guess should not be too much(?).

 

Thank you for your swift reply and efforts to solve my issue. If you got no further questions, this thread can be closed.

@.SMK. Thank you for reaching out! I can't tell from the Reddit post, but my first question would be to ask how heavily favorties are being used. 

Favorites are stored in the browser, which would explain why disk space is running low. Clearing cache will remove all your favorited images and clear space. If favorites aren't being heavily used, then we need to ask more questions.
