So I've noticed in the last week that my Cache folder generates an exorbitant amount of cache files, even when hardly using the Gallery. I regularly check and delete my cache, so when I glanced in it the other day, it had over 1800 files that I deleted. Today, it had over 1700. This is by just playing around in CAS, and with my Library, in a "New Game", with no mods or CC. I usually use a few mods, but I always remove the mods folder before updating and delete the cache files and wait for updates for them.
I've been spending a lot of time in CAS with my Library this week, but I noticed that when I open it, the Gallery is always the default page. Could this partly be why so many files generate? I have never had this many files in that folder, I don't think, ever.
Also, I've noticed people reporting their Gallery freezing and slowing, could this have anything to do with that, perhaps?

The folder should contain a picture cache for every item you checked within a play session. So maybe the cache folder doesn't delete itself anymore and that's the issue ?
I assume it stayed for you after you closed the game ?

Yes, it is not deleting. After one play session in CAS I had 1800+ files. I have been deleting them myself before starting the game.

I think that might be the problem. The cache folder should delete afak.
