over the last few days I noticed that my harddrive on my windows pc was nearly full. I then analyzed the drive and found out that I have a temp folder with >300GB. I just deleted everything. But now it is already getting flooded again.
Most of the files are 500MB bin files. I tried to open them in plot.ardupilot and it works. It is the log file from a simulation I once ran inside of Mission Planner (but I’m not sure if I ran the mission on this pc). But I opened it in plot.ardupilot a few times.
So some software must dump these files in the temp folder and don’t delete them. I have installed MissionPlanner, QGroundControl and mavProxy. Any idea how I can find out which program is causing this? I couldn’t find any of those processes in the task manager.
Probably MissionPlanner. I definitely didn’t run SITL from command line and I ran mavproxy once for a short period of time to test the installation (like 1min or so). But I don’t think that I ran the long mission on my laptop where this is happening… And on my desktop PC, where I’m sure that I ran the long mission at least once (but I think also the second time was at at my desktop PC) i don’t have this problem…
Edit: According to ProcMon and if my interpretation is correct DllHost.ex is accessing the files…
