XPG Prime tuning app dumps 50GB of anime girl photos in Redditors temp folder
Summary
A Reddit user got a very unexpected surprise upon booting their PC: 50GB of anime girl pictures in their Windows temp folder, courtesy of XPGs Prime utility. In our brief testing, we found that the software doesnt delete temporary UI wallpaper images and creates new redundant copies on every restart. XPG is a gaming hardware and accessories product brand from Adata that specializes in RAM and SSDs, with a strong commitment to its anime styled aesthetics, which youll find present on everything from their boxes to their apps. Considering the 15MB of temporary data generated with each app startup, a user who turns on their PC three times a day throughout the year would accumulate a considerable 16.4GB of bloat. While not harmful, this is still an undesirable situation, and we hope XPG issues an update promptly, given that many consumers dont routinely clear their temp folders.
