Thanks to tenforums Successfully worked here, webcache files can be deleted and they do not generate automagically after this. In my case, deleted the following in registry, of course backed up these entries in a .reg file.
Right after starting services.msc (Description: Microsoft Management Console) to view my services, i noticed that dllhost.exe (Description: COM Surrogate) was executed and i could see the above ID in Process Hacker: And it has opened protected handles to "V01.log" and "WebCacheV01.dat" in the WebCache-folder. I was curious and wanted to see the content of "WebCacheV01.dat" but the access has been denied. At the moment i don't want to disable the task, take ownership, etc. (maybe at a later time) So i searched for the file handle "webcachev01.dat" in Processhacker ("Find Handles or DLL's"): It's possible to view or extract it from memory. I selected the handle which has the Section-Type so i could select "Read/Write memory". If it is bigger than 32MB, there wil be a small warning message. The section/file is now opened and it can be viewed or saved to disk ("Save...") ------ There can be continuous disk writes if the Webcache is enabled:
Yes, after a reboot no reference to Webcache-files can be seen in Process Hacker ("Find handles"). And they can be deleted now.
I noticed again some explorer-crashes (Exception code: 0x80270249), and after some searching, disabling the Webcache might have caused this: I have reverted all changes and i keep an eye on it. If explorer.exe doesn't crash again after a startup, then disabling the webcache was definitely the culprit (at least on my system)
Make sure, you have explorer process separated from the rest to avoid interference. Code: 1 - Launch folder windows in a separate process reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" /v "SeparateProcess" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f 0 - All of the components of Windows Explorer run a single process / 1 - All instances of Windows Explorer run in one process and the Desktop and Taskbar run in a separate process reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer" /v "DesktopProcess" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f
Thanks Nice, i didn't know anything about the second one. I have added it to my tweak-collection, and it is set now. I'll see the "result" (two explorer.exe-processes) after the next reboot. Edit: I guess "DesktopProcess" doesn't work on Windows 8 or a newer OS But the other registry modification is working: "Launch folder windows in a separate process"
