Studio Server regularly stores files in temporary locations. As a maintenance task, it can sometimes be preferable to clean up unwanted files from some of these locations.
The overview below lists the different locations where temporary files are stored and how they can be safely cleaned up.
System temp folder
On each physical system, Studio Server uses the system temp folder for storing files by using one of the following prefixes:
- ent
- sips-
- req
- WW_SOAP_Client_response_
