Illustrator 2023 (27.0) Generating *lots* of temp files

Question

Hello,

I have been using Illustrator for a number of years now, and have only been running into this issue recently.

When just using Illustrator, (Opening, saving, closing, etc.) a *lot* of temp files and folders are being generated. Sometimes after using it for an hour or two, I'll have 4-5 temp files, and other times, a 15 minute session will leave me with 30 files + 30 folders.

I have no idea what's causing it, and I can't seem to consistently replicate it.

Does anyone have any ideas? It's starting to become quite frustrating.

Hello @Bailey5D66,

Sorry to hear about this experience. Would you mind trying to uncheck the Automatic Proxy from Internet options and check if it helps?

Internet Properties>Connections>LAN settings>Uncheck Automatic settings

Also, kindly try using the local drive and manually copy your work to the cloud-synced folder, as suggested by Steve, to avoid problems. You may learn more about this here: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/illustrator/kb/illustrator-support-networks-removable-media.html.

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,

Anubhav
