Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Hello,
I realized that advagg has created thousands of thousands of js files (~700,000! files) that start with file_advagg in my files directory. I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem and also if I could safely remove those files without breaking my website. Also I appreciate if someone could give me an idea on how to prevent this in the future.

mikeytown2 CreditAttribution: mikeytown2 commentedYou can safely remove them; advagg will do so on cron; you can also force it by going to admin/config/development/performance/advagg/operations and under Cron Maintenance Tasks click the Delete leftover temporary files button. Are there any advagg messages in watchdog/dblog? What operating system are you using? Function in question is advagg_save_data().
