This purple folder is the cache folder I made for Bridge on my D: drive:

Examine it

Any time you want to take a closer look at a folder and its contents, just click on it. Here, I’ve clicked on the Bridge Cache block, and it becomes the centre of the “map”:

Around it are all the subfolders, and all their subfolders, and so on. I can see that one subfolder, shown in green, is clearly far bigger than the rest, so I hover my mouse over it to see what it is:

I hope this is making sense to you. It certainly will once you start playing with Scanner on your own computer. You can drill down to examine as many folders and subfolders as you wish.

Why are we doing this? >>

[Josie Stahl]

Not a question about the program, but I'm interested in why the folder "Bride Cache don't delete" exists for you.

[Damien Symonds]

It's literally my custom Bridge Cache folder.

[Josie Stahl]

Should have worded that differently - do you never delete any of it?

[Damien Symonds]

What?  No, I delete.  I just don't want it cluttering up my C drive, is all.

[Josie Stahl]

I have never ever deleted any of that. I wasn't aware of this. I suppose you cover that in your bridge class.

 

[Damien Symonds]

Yeah.
