Streamline folder taking 66GB of space

[Dragos]

I noticed that the Streamline folder inside Witcher 3 main folder keeps increasing to 66GB, even if I delete the content it goes back to that size. This didn't used to happen in the past.
Some said this might be because of DLSS but I have it disabled

It is related to Nvidia. But i cant find anyone who tells how to fix that. I literally cant play Witcher 3 because it fills my 500gb SSD in like one day

I have an "old" 3060ti. do not have a streamline folder in either the witcher 3 folder
nor c:\ProgramData\NVIDIA.

perhaps post on the nvidia forums and ask those experts.

while waiting, perhaps run a task (hourly?, daily?) that deletes old unused files.
many web tutorials about the issue - seems to be a common windows problem.

press WinKey + Ctrl + Shift + B keys simultaneously will restart the nvidia graphics driver but I do not know if that clears out the streamline folder as I do not have one to test on.

Thank you for the tips. It seems like the issue doesn't always occur, so I'll leave it like this for now
