Spam Files in Safe Game Folder - "SP Replay v ... @ ... .aoe2record"

[Boshiken]

Why is the Safe Game Folder spammed with Files
named "SP Replay v ... @ ... .aoe2record"?
1. It is just Spam that takes away endless Space.
2. And endless Time to Safe or Load a Safe Game File.

It's not spam, it's a replay file, in your case for singleplayer games.

The game always used to store savegames and replay files within the same folder.

so - is there a way to get rid of this?
or - do you have the same problem - and how do you handle it?

Just delete them like you'd normally delete a file on your PC.

And no, I don't have the same problem with them. As I've said, the game always stored savegames and replay files together ever since the CD Version :)
When you load a aoe2record file in the game, you see a replay of the game you played.

so - is there no way - to deactivate making replays?

Not entirely but you can significantly reduce the amount of replays the game creates. If you play a non-campaign game vs the AI, untick the "Record Game" option. The game will still make a replay called rec.aoe2record but it overwrites it everytime you start a new game.

I think for campaign games you can also disable the option to make replay files but I don't remember where

Go to options > Game > Gameplay box on the left > At the bottom third you'll see "Record Campaign Games", untick it.

EDIT: Skirmish games the record tick box option in in the bottom right of the options of the lobby, untick that. You'll have no single player replays now.
