16gb PreBakeCache.bin is being stored in your AppData\Local\

good job 2K, thanks for storing a 16gb file in my AppData\Local\WWE 2K22 folder.
come on, you guys could have atleast compressed this file.

16gb! Thanks for the heads up.

So what is it? What does it contain.

Not quite sure, but after deleting, the game can not play，showing this: "there is not enough free space on system storage Up to 2148 MB free space may be required"

That sounds like the reserved space...

For updates and patches??? Why the hell did it reserve space on entirely different drive then, it should've been done in the same folder as game itself.

reserved 16gb of space??? when it can compress to 10mb.. what a joke!

WWE 2K22 AppData Folder Takes Up 16 GB of Space

I just realized that in AppData/Local/WWE2K22 there is a file named PreBakeCache.bin, which takes up 16 gb of space. Does anybody know why it is that big?

Also the file is still there after I uninstalled the game.

It was 8 GB for me but yes, it is left over when you uninstall the game. Be sure to remove it.
I assumed it was related to save data but I really don't know. Could be a video file for all I know.

No wondered my SSD got way less storage! If it not a cash cow it a memory hogs!

No matter what it is, it should have been installed on the same drive as the game/steam unless it absolutly needs the windows drive.

Same folder as the rest of the game too.
