[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 406980"] I find that upon restart certain apps discard their cache and temp files and I discover them in my trash in a folder called [I]Recovered files[/I]. Now that to me is sloppy programming. But Apple too is guilty of this, as I will find iChat stuff in there once in a while when I have exchanged a file while in chat with friends. It's all built-in the OS, the least the programmers could do is use the feature. As for the maintenance scripts, they are built-in too, the user must leave his computer on (not in sleep mode) between 3 and 5 a.m. and the scripts will run by themselves. I, by choice, do not let my Mac on 24 hours a day but others do. [/QUOTE]
