Clear the 'cache' in file explorer for already used picture tags?


If you set some tags for your *.jpg pictures, the windows 10 file explorer shows them in the "details pane" on the right side.





This list can get very long and with some wrong or no longer used entries.
How can I clear this list / cache / suggestions?

Or how can I stop the file explorer to suggests already used Tags?

 

Direct X shader Cache

Hi Linda. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 8 year Windows MVP, here to help you.

The Direct X cache should not be there as it's a Recovery partition holding the bootable tools for when WIndows won't start. It should also not have a drive letter which is the reason something was able to write to it which may disabled it. So first delete
the Direct X folder inside. Then follow these steps to remove drive letter on a System Partition:

There is an issue where Version 1803 adds a drive letter to the Recovery partition that should be hidden because it's only used for bootable repair tools that in previous edition of Windows were on C drive. Then it reports that it is full.

Since the partition is to meant to be hidden it can't have drive letter removed in Disk Mgmt like other partitions. So you can wait for Windows Update to deliver a fix for this as promised, or take these steps now to remove it:

1. Select the Start button, type cmd and then right-click Command Prompt in the search results and select Run as administrator.

2. In the Administrator: Command Prompt window, type diskpart and press Enter.

3. Type list volume and press Enter.

4. Make note of the volume number for the drive letter you want to remove. For example, if the drive letter you want to remove is Drive “D”, note the volume number for Drive D.

5. Type the following command, and press Enter.

select volume <volume number>

When typing this command, in place of <volume number>, substitute the volume number you made note of in Step 4. In the example above, if the volume number for drive G is 5, you would type: select volume 5

6. Type the following command and press Enter.

remove letter=<drive letter>

When typing this command, in place of <drive letter>, substitute the drive letter you want to remove. In this example, you would type: remove letter=G

7. Close the Command Prompt window.

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
