Many tempory files

In stead use this post

My tempory file folder is getting full of Calibre files.
Since I use Calibre (a lot), My tempory file folder explodes.
If I do not use CCleaner every 3 days, I get troubles because I the next time I use CCleaner, it takes ages to locate all (hundereds) of temp-files.

So is it possible to auto-clean up this data at regular moments? (I think of closing closing calibre, closing an ebook, once a week, ...)
If there is a reason not to do this, is it possible to run a clean at update? I got tempfiles of 5 versions the first time I ran CCleaner.
No need to keep all that versions I think?

(At the other hand, because I have my books on my server, I'm glad the temp files are on my laptop during use, this speeds up my usage a lot)

You should not need to buy CCcleaner.

Windows has a built in tool (besides the user ) to do the job.
"Disk Cleanup" on the Accessories: system tools menu

Partway through the run (after detection phase), you have options on which to 'clean', Temp files is the sure thing to tick, Compress old almost never ('system' files can get compressed and realy slow things down).

CCleaner is

1. FREE ware - so buying it is a non issue.

2. much better than the windows equivalent IMHO - it's flexible & easy to configure so that it deletes only what you want deleted & keeps what you want kept e.g. cookies.

3. Has other useful functions like startup manager & uninstaller. sure , windows has these ,but it's handy to have them all in one easy-to-use utility.

PS if having to run it every 3 days is SO difficult, then it can be configured to aurtorun at start up or shut-down

Yes and I can add it on a schedule.
So it is not difficult, but a good program should not need such 'hacks'

But there is a fix in the next release.
