Do you know which folder within contextual related posts folder created this issue? * The cache feature doesn’t use the disk for storing files. The only issue I see could be with timthumb cache going berserk. * Please do monitor and let me know if this is happening again over the next week or so? * Thread Starter [hamoon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/graphirancom/) * (@graphirancom) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/webdisk-space-fulled-by-contecual-folder/#post-4829008) * it happens again, in 3 hours it make 8gig ! i don’t know how. then i deleted all .txt files in contextual-related-posts/timthumb/cache. then 8gig returns to 0.5mb ! i don’t know how is this possible , i never had this kind of problem with this plugin! but now it’s usage space is 65mb ! i reported this to my hosting provider and they didn’t know how is this possible too, they just put 000 permission to CACHE folder. i don’t know it works or not * Thread Starter [hamoon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/graphirancom/) * (@graphirancom) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/webdisk-space-fulled-by-contecual-folder/#post-4829009) * all that .TXT files that i said are just maybe 100kb not 8gig! but when i deleted CACHE folder content, webdisk got empty ! now CACHE folder is empty but still it shows that the contextual plugin folder uses 65mb space! i don’t know where is this 65mb file or files! * Plugin Author [Ajay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ajay/) * (@ajay) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/webdisk-space-fulled-by-contecual-folder/#post-4829015) * It seems to be a problem with timthumb. I suggest disabling timthumb and checking the usage. * Another option worth trying is to completely remove the plugin. First deactivate the plugin and then delete it from the Plugins page in your WP-Admin. This should completely delete the folder contextual-related-posts * It could be possible that timthumb doesn’t have delete access to clean up the cache files. * Thread Starter [hamoon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/graphirancom/) * (@graphirancom) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/webdisk-space-fulled-by-contecual-folder/#post-4829018) * i did all these works, i didn’t enable timbthumb , it was OFF always and i removed plugin once , and it happend again. now i told this problem to my hosting provider and they said to me that they did some works on server to prevent this problem and i don’t know what are those works. i hope it works… * Plugin Author [Ajay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ajay/) * (@ajay) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/webdisk-space-fulled-by-contecual-folder/#post-4829074) * Do let me know if this crops up again.
