Folders take up a lot of space in the system.

Good afternoon.
Today I found a folder on the disk with the size of 11 GB
C: \ Users \ UserName \ AppData \ Roaming \ Affinity \
In this folder
C: \ Users \ UserName \ AppData \ Roaming \ Affinity \ Photo \ 1.0 \ autosave
There are a lot of files. As I understand autosave.
Whether it is possible to make so that the program at start checked, whether there are auto-saved files, and if there is that predlogala them to restore, and if is not present, itself deleted them.

In theory that is how auto-save files should get deleted, when Affinity closes successfully it should remove any autosave files.  I believe there was a bug with this not working as it should a few builds ago which has now been resolved and from my testing, a newly created autosave file is deleted when the app is closed down successfully.  If you open the Auto-save folder and start a new blank file, you should see the autosave file get created and if you then close Affinity, you should see it is removed  

If you check the dates on the files in the autosave folder, i suspect they will be a good few months old if not older and can be deleted

Good. I deleted the files, but did not look at the date they were created. I can only say that 2018. If the files will appear there again, I will let you know.
