When I start Charakter Animator my c drive fills up rather quickly. I think those are temp datas because as soon as I quite CA I get the space back. But I couldn't find any prefs to put those data onto another Harddrive or do I overlook something? I my opinion this should be an option because if I work on a project and it fills my c drive and I can't continue to work this would be an extreme problem.

    No idea sorry. I have crashes causing it to exit, but never crashes because it exited! But I only have a C drive On my laptop.

    The "always saved" setup in CH has been there from the beginning, intended to save the data needed to fix problems during the development of a new app. It definitely fills up the automatically saved projects and puts them all in one place. You can use "save as" at any time to place the project wherever you want it. I usually do that, and then delete the project from my C drive. From then on the project will stay where you have put it.

    Thanks for the clarification but I've put my project on my d drive however as soon as I start CA 4gb are gone from my c drive and it seems to still put data on that drive. Do I need to do anything else?

    I haven't noticed that behavior.

    Did you "Save as" in Ch to put the project on D, or did you move the project from C to D in file explorer?
