Can I delete this cache folder??

[bjlw]

I recently removed After Effects from my Mac because I ran out of space and I don't use it very often if at all lately.

I ran the uninstaller for it. However I still have a rather large (25+ GB) cache folder located in:

HD/Users/<username>/Library/Caches/Adobe/After Effects

is it ok to delete this folder or will it interfere with Photo Shop in any way?

There shouldn't be any problem with you deleting that.

It has no relevance to Photoshop.

For future reference, you can purge that from within AE by choosing Edit > Purge > All Memory & Disk Cache... or under Preferences > Media & Disk Cache > Empty Disk Cache....

If you haven't set up a dedicated, fast drive for the AE Disk Cache, it's common to empty it every so often.  Necessary even.

Do other adobe applications have this same feature? If so, where would I find that?
