I have implemented the web Browser control in my application. I have noticed that in the project root directory a cs folder is created. This is apparently used for the WebBrowser cache folder. I noticed I quickly compiled about 100mb in cache files.

I was wondering if there was a way to clear the cache.

If not, I know I can manually clear the contents of the file using vb.net code, but will the folder always be in the application root directory and always named cs?


In the documentation, I've found a section called "Managing Cookies" that states by default all cookies are stored in memory and are discarded when the application closes. To save the cookies, set EO.WebBrowser.Runtime.CachePath property to save in the specified directory.

I have not set EO.WebBrowser.Runtime.cachePath, yet my cookies/cached data are being stored in the cs folder. Did the default change so it's stored physically instead of in memory?

Hi,

We have posted a new build on our download page that fixed this problem. It should no longer creates "cs" folder. Note that this build still does not have a way to clear the cache without exiting the program.

Thanks!
