Temp Files are not being cleared on app exit

[omodia]

Setup or portable version of the app?

Portable

Steps to reproduce

Temp Files Directory - C:\Users\ Your Pc Username Here \AppData\Local\Temp

1. Open any zip, cbz, epub file in yomikiru.
2. After they are unzipped and loaded, open temp files directory.
3. You can see all the temporary files stored there with the names and extension of the zip, cbz, epub previously opened by the app.

✔️ Expected Behavior

• The temporary files should be deleted on app exit.

❌ Actual Behavior

• The temporary files are not being cleared even after closing the application.

I am using portable version, So the temp files should be stored in the portable directory. And the temp files should be deleted from the portable directory on app exit.

I'm not sure if that's how it is supposed to work. Temp directory is managed by the system and is recommended for this kind of work. Though it is possible to make it that way but then I will hate to create different rules for portable and setup version. As for the deleting, there might be some issue there, I'll check that.

Please check if the same is also happening for image files.

Edit - After some delibaration, I too think leaving the temp files in the system temp directory is the best choice. Ignore the thing about storing temp data in portable directory. It sounded good on paper, but not now.

As for the deleting, there might be some issue there, I'll check that.

Thank you.

Temp directory is managed by the system and is recommended for this kind of work.

So I looked for a way and found storage sense. My storage sense was at the default option, so the temp files were never cleared by the system. I can do a weekly schedule to fix it.

No rush, take your time to look into this matter. Thank you for your work.

It is better to use the temp directory for the temp files as it is cleaned by storage sense. Many other portable apps also use the temp directory for storing temp files.

1. After running storage sense, every temp file of yomikiru is cleared except one folder.
2. That folder contained mimetype as name.
3. It is from last week, but look at the date.

I agree. At first, it sounded good on paper, but after some delibaration, I too said above that storing temp files in temp folder is best.

Temp files are not cleared on app exit, instead they are only cleared on clicking the home button. For epub, as it is 30 mb, it causes the app to freeze for 2 seconds. I mentioned it here, as it was marked as closed, but is still happening.

Even if the temp files are not cleared on app exit. It's not a problem.

But the temp files are cleared by clicking on home icon, that causes the app to freeze for 2 seconds. This is the problem.

Please remove that (Clearing temp files when clicked on home icon, so as to not freeze the app).
