Hi CentBrowser team,
today, when checking the size of my CentBrowser appdata, I had a heart attack when I saw that mine was above 4GB, even if all the caches (Cache, GPUCache) are DISABLED in this folder ! After some research, mega.co.nz writes files to a temporary folder before copying it to the download folder (what perturbed mind can imagine dumb features like that ?), and, of course, the temporary data is not flushed away when download is finished
Question is : Is there anything I can do to STOP that bullshit ? Can I use any flag to block that stupid behavior ?
I don't want to be forced to clean my AppData\Local\CentBrowser\User Data\Default\File System folder every time I use mega.
This behavior of Chrome/Chromium is well known since 2015 (I didn't know until now for my part)...it seems nothing has changed since then, which makes me wonder if anything can be done.

I'm using a ramdisk (z:\) for all temporary folders, to take care of my SSD, of course CB is set to NOT use any temporary folder in my Appdata folder (Cache,GPUCache, etc.), but all my efforts are killed, thanks to Mega.
my command lines : --disable-gpu-program-cache --disable-gpu-shader-disk-cache --disk-cache-dir=z:\temp
Thank you for reading ! If you have any clue to solve this, feel free to tell me, if it's not :
or maybe I can use Jdownloader or any other Downloader manager ? (not the official mega client, I don't want to install that to download some files, sometimes)

Thank you for reading ! If you have any clue to solve this, feel free to tell me, if it's not :
- do NOT use mega.co.nz
- use extension "x" or "y" to automatically clear your cache
- manually clear your cache
