If you do it then I'd reboot immediately afterwards. Clearing out a web browsers cache does not damage any information stored in a browser, such as bookmarks or your homepage. Doing it with the System fully up can be a little dangerous. Of course the best way to clear the caches is to install AppleJack and do it with that in single user mode. In the terminal run the following to sort all of the files in that directory by size (ascending): du -s /Library/Caches/* | sort -h 75 Gb so I'd go right ahead and remove some of it.ĭon't worry about age, I'd worry about size. On the three machines I just checked none had a /Library/Caches folder over. If the cache /Library/Caches folder is over 3Gb then you have something that is caching quite a lot. This folder can run quite large just because so many apps cache something in there. If you have a look in ~/Library/Caches you will find a bunch of applications have a cache in there, none of them particularly large though dropbox sometimes has a fair sized cache. The caches in /System/Library/Caches are generally small and useful, the ones in /Library/Caches are less system caches and much more readily cleared. If the problem persists, contact Blizzard technical support for further diagnostics and troubleshooting.It's generally safe, though a little dangerous depending, to do it but often not worth the effort. every 10,000,000 accesses to the cache, there are 308,752 L1 cache misses. Run the launcher client and start up "World of Warcraft." The game will build a new cache, which should fix any issues you were experiencing before. If you only want to clear the WoW cache, you can go into the folder and delete the "World of Warcraft" folder instead. This folder contains the cache data for all Blizzard games currently installed on your computer. This is where Windows stores cache data and other similar information for various programs, including Blizzard games like "World of Warcraft."įind the "Blizzard Entertainment" folder and delete it. Press "Windows-R" to open the Run dialog and enter the following path into the field, without quotes:
This completely closes out the launcher and Blizzard agent, so that it can't interfere with or be inadvertently damaged by deleting the cache. Select the Processes tab and find "agent.exe." Click the "End Process" button to close out the process.
