Technical question related to Audacity but not to the workings and operation of Audacity editing. It has to do with the remnants of all the editing I do. Every bit of audio you edit cut, delete, etc, gets stored up on your PC someplace- in some Audacity related file, and after editing hundreds of hours of audio, I am running out of space on my C drive on my PC. My question is, where does the Audacity program store these items on your PC, what folder does it put them in my default? I can’t seem to find the folder that has all of the Audacity leftover debris in it
I just looked in Audacity Preferences/Directories and then the location it says that my session data (editing remnants)are being stored and that location is empty
If Audacity closes normally, (rather than crashes), the session data is deleted immediately.
Only true while Audacity is open (or crashes as Trebor points out) - onece you close/exit Audacity all the remnants are removed and all you get is just your project, just what you see.
