Kendra Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 Sorry it takes me awhile. I have a young baby. Here is the screenshot of what showed up now...I didnt change anything this time this is what appeared. 2nd attachment photo- When I go into the "Bridge Cache dont delete" folder that I made under D drive, this is what shows up. When I click on each folder within, they are empty, except the data folder which says "store" and "store-journal". Is this right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 This is perfect! Now, go to the old cache folder on the C drive, and empty it. Leave the folder itself there, but delete everything from inside it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I hope you won't wait too long to take my new Bridge Class. I talk at great length about cache. https://www.damiensymonds.net/bridge-class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendra Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 Sounds good. Do I go to the old cache folder on C drive and delete through bridge, or from my desktop>Startmenu>Computer>C drive? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 No, not through Bridge. Just on your computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendra Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 first image: I am thinking I click the bridge CS6, which has the cache folder. The "Bridge" one has weird folders. second image: these are the 4 folders that show up when I click on cache. So are you saying I just right click each folder and delete them? I want to verify this. Can you tell I am terrified of screwing this up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 That's exactly right. Delete those four folders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 They might take a while to delete, if they're as huge as I think they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Whoop! Whoop!! Damien hits a Grand Slam!! This is a real-world scenario on why I personally do not like drives that are 256GB or smaller for today's modern computers. Manufacturers like to put in a 256GB SSD drive for the main drive because they are cheap, and those drive's prices have come way down since we have larger SSD Drives these days. Plus SSD drives are fast, which gives them bragging rights for advertisements. That's how you get the "Boot your Windows 10 Computer in less than 15 Seconds!!!!" tag-lines. Uh-huh...what happens when it's full? LOL!! The problem is...the end-user. They are so used to putting everything on the main HD, from files to programs...it's all next-next-next-ok-click-click-ok-next-next-finish...that they don't pay attention on just how much space they are using up on those smaller capacity drives. So are these drives bad? Of course not. You just have to by hyper-anal on what is put on them. From Bridge Cache, to Windows Updates, to software, to your data files...it all matters and you need to be pro-active at all times on what gets stored on them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendra Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 Thanks Brian, that definitely makes sense. Now, even after all this, pictures STILL will open from bridge to photoshop (acts like I double clicked photo) even though I only clicked photo once!! Any idea?

Brian Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Sorry. Bridge is Damien’s thing. It could be a screwed up mouse driver or mouse setting. Head to the control panel and poke around. Maybe something is turned on that’s not supposed to. This is a mouse right? Not a stupid track pad? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendra Posted May 14, 2018 Author Share Posted May 14, 2018 Hi Brian, Yes, its a mouse. I looked at mouse settings and everything seems correct as far as settings go. Here are some screenshots. Its still driving me nuts and acting as if I double clicked when I only single clicked. What do I try next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendra Posted May 14, 2018 Author Share Posted May 14, 2018 Also this driver thing? I go click the "solve" button but everytime says a solution cannot be downloaded at this time.... also I DO back my files up on a separate Harddrive so dont know why I get the bottom message.

Kendra Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 Damien? Brian? Please See above post from May 13. I am still having issues, help. Is it the driver? I know nothing about.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Is this a USB mouse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendra Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 Yes a USB mouse, although the wireless one went goofy too. As far as driver, every time I click to find a solution/fix, it says it can’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I would head to device manager, find the mouse in the list and right-click / uninstall it. Yes, I know this will cause the mouse to stop working, LOL!! Simply pull the mouse's cord out of the USB socket, wait about 10-15 seconds and insert it. The driver should re-install.
