Question

Creative Cloud files fill up local storage despite changing the Sync Folder location to external

I wonder if anyone is having the same issue: I work with a lot of mockup files in Photoshop (many layered files with a lot of smart objects) and despite me re-dericting the Creative Cloud Sync Folder to my external hard drive, my local laptop storage keep on being filled with some kind of cache files from all the mockups I store in the cloud.

The folder where these "cache" elements accumulate is: 

\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CoreSync\cloudnative\DCX\34e0e7e71692734287175d22f73fa208\1\v1\blob

 

Anyone knows how to avoid it? 

It takes almost half of my laptop storage already... 😞

 

TIA

    I appreciate you locating that god awful for me. I have been at this for six months and the cloud crashes my computer single time and I chat and call and now help and no I can't get my work off the cloud easily.  I have to download each asset and png individually. I reset my laptop two days ago and didn't set it up until after cloud synced and my main drive was full

    I have been storing all my assets to the ccloud for a year and now I can't let it sync to my computer because it will fill up the storage. So how to I get my work off of the creative cloud without syncing and crashing my laptop. I will not sit here and download each element one by one. Please help me get my work back
