Um, no, not quite. If you add a 26GB file to a project, UVS doesn't automatically eat up another 26GB for temp files.

It creates temporary files as needed to keep track of undo information, cache preview info (if configured to), and when doing high-quality previews, but that's it until you render or create a disk.

Out of space-now I know why

Post by tonyjer »

Hi everyone

Thanks for all the advice.

Having eliminated all the obvious possibilities I deleted all the files in the Windows/recent folder. (I already show hidden files)

Once the recent folder was deleted the drive usage showed 26.5 GB which was what I expected.

Many thanks again.
