Notez que this is **NOT** the Cache folder. It's the Cache of Service Worker, the path should be `AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Service Worker`.
Recently J'ai remarqué my disque dur is almost full so Je veux clean it up. J'ai remarqué the while the Cache folder is acceptable (200MB), the cache of Service Worker folder is so big (> 1GB). J'ai essayé unregister all the service workers but the cache folder is still there.
Puis-je safely just delete them from Explorateur Windows?
P.s: as a developer, I am amazed by the amount of registered service workers. Most of them are trackers and useless stuff I should have removed before.
J'ai read [this article](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clearing-service-worker-cache) but it didn't work for me because:
-
Je ne veux pas to delete cookies aussi, I need them. Unfortunately Chrome/Edge group that into one option.
-
I can't just allez dans each website to delete individual Service Worker cache.
Comment clear Chrome/Chromium Edge Service Worker cache?
Re: Comment clear Chrome/Chromium Edge Service Worker cache?
My own Service Worker cache is found at the folder:
`C:\Users\USER-NAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Service Worker\CacheStorage\3cedfb74d44f2e84198d23075aef16c34a668ceb`.
J'ai tried to clean it up using in `edge://settings/clearBrowserData`
the option of "Cached images and files", but this didn't touch the
Service Worker cache.
So Je viens de went into the above folder with explorer and deleted all
its contents, but left the folder itself in place.
Then I started Microsoft Edge, and it started without any problem.
It also re-populated the folder with new content.
So my answer is: Yes, vous pouvez delete it from Explorer.
Si vous êtes worried about safety, you may at first step move the contents
to a temporary folder and run Microsoft Edge. If everything works well,
you may then delete the temporary folder.
Remarque : Google Chrome behaves in exactly the same way. Its cache is found at:
`C:\Users\USER-NAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Service Worker`.
`C:\Users\USER-NAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Service Worker\CacheStorage\3cedfb74d44f2e84198d23075aef16c34a668ceb`.
