Ignore the ignorance, but someone would have asked this anyways.

Did you use a Flash Player disk image file recently i.e.

Flash Player.dmg level 2 2 points 6 years ago A quick Google search (which I probably should have done first, as you should have;)) returns this: COMMANDclick and drag off the DU window.

Its a remnant left behind when you last installed Flash Player.

My antivirus software (Trend Micro Smart Surfing for Mac) finds and quaranteens them daily.

But I got to the file, mounted it and found out it was the Flash Player installation crap I deleted it since my flash player is up to date.

It also looks like it has extra spaces dotted about in this copy of the info.

There appear to be several spaces before some of the forward slashes that are not expected.

On the other hand it could be several different lines of a report as when I look ReportCrash is an Executable item and cannot be opened further.

The privatevarfolders continues to grow in size over the course of 1-2 months consuming all the disk space which leads to the computer being unusable.

I know this folder should be deleted automatically from the system.

Has anyone else seen or encountered this issue Thank you in advance.

By default, files in this location may be cleaned (removed) by the system if they are not accessed in 3 days.

The cache will only be deleted with a safe boot and only files older then 3 days are cleaned out of temp.

Either way, you can delete varfolders and reboot whenever you would like without danger of ruining anything.

What is privatevarfolders used for Because my backup was maybe two month old, any suggestions on the possible gap and changed data Any chance that I lost some important datametadata Any useful help is highly appreciated.

Each of the cryptically named folders has a sub-folder that begins with the same two characters, and continues with something even more cryptic, for instance privatevarfolders9090gu9daQFSitP4FD2179ckTI And inside that folder are sub-folders for caches and two temp folders: a -Tmp- folder and a TemporaryItems folder.

These ought to be empty when you first startup your computer.

Many programs use them for storing stuff as they are working.

The -Caches- folder has a similar function, except the data stays there thru a restart.

If those files are removed no harm done, although some things may be a little slower until the cache for it is rebuilt.

The problem that can happen is that the ownership and group of each of the really cryptically named folders (shown above) and the three sub-folders must be correct or you will run into some VERY strange problems with some programs that use those folders.

In the case above, that is my main users temporary and cache folder home.

There will also be a folder for each user on the computer, and the others will belong to the system and to other users such as a proxy server, the Guest account, the printer demon (anyway I think thats what lp is) and so on.

The two-character parent folders (90 in the above example) should all be owned by system, group wheel.

Its their sub-folders which must have owner and group correct.
