  1. Temporary files increasing every day by the gigabyte


    Yesterday I went to a computer repair person because I was getting messages that I was out of storage. He had never heard of this problem but he ran a piece of software and said I would be good for a long time. Well since yesterday another 6 gigs of temporary files have appeared in my storage. I read some other articles first in this forum and tried the troubleshooter method and that didn't do anything. It said it could not find anything wrong. I don't want to bring it back to the computer repair person because he was just as perplexed as I am right now.

    I have Nokia Lumia 620, its increases temp files day by day. I tried by Storage Check's Clear option but unable to delete these. I also tried by clearing every apps cached file. But every time increasing temp files size.

    My phone have latest version Amber Update.



    Please inform me how to remove it.



    Thanks

    Increasing Temorary File Storage

    I went to the link in Francis 96 reply. I had already been there and done that. The increase in storage, as Francis noted, has occurred since this summer. I have no photos on the phone. I deleted all the games and most of the apps that came with the phone.
    Aside from the app from the Carrier, I've not downloaded any other apps. I have Word and Excel files. But, these are not temporary files and are accounted for in storage sense in another classification. I keep Data Sense setting on High.

    So, should I assume that the Temporary Files (wouldn't it be great if I could get a list of these!) will keep expanding?

    Prior to the last update the Temporary Files would decrease in real numbers, not just the rate of increase. Buying more storage as the link suggests does not make sense. Why can't the Temporary Files be deleted and I delete them?
