Flushing the Cache

If you need more disk space than is currently available on your computer, you can either change the size of your cache or flush the cache.

Making your cache smaller is a preferable solution if you are not using all the cache space. Determine the amount of cache space currently in use by looking at the In Use graph on the PC-CacheFS Monitor.

Flushing the cache is a preferable solution if you temporarily need to make space available on your computer. Flushing the cache causes the information contained in the cache to be temporarily removed from your hard disk until you access the information again.
