Some months ago, I wrote that I had created a simple Batch file to remove thousands of junk files from a Win-11 hard drive.
Several people wanted that batch file, and I provided it. But, among other things, it only deleted the Temporary Internet Files (TIF's) from Edge and Firefox. (the only browsers that I use)
However, it was reported to me, that many persons use "Chrome" as their everyday browser.
So I've installed Chrome on one of my lesser PC's, and did some browsing to create some TIF's.
Then I ran my Cleanup.bat program with this line added:
Del /F /S /Q "C:\Users\%UserName%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache\*.*"
Sure nuff, all the Chrome TIF's were GONE! Mission accomplished.
So, if anyone reading this has my Cleanup batch file, and they use Chrome, they can add this line somewhere in the middle of the batch file, for a Cleanup of the Chrome TIF's.
Or if you use Chrome, and you don't have my Cleanup batch file, just create your own text file with the above blue line, and save it as Cleanup.bat and you'll be able to clean the Chrome TIF's out of your own PC.
