A method and system for cleaning software cache

Abstract

The invention proposes a method and system for cleaning software cache. The right management module first applies to the user for the permission of cache cleaning, if user agrees to grant permission,the scanning module scans the storage space of the terminal device, scans the software cache files through the software cache directory, the cache file is compared with the original file by the comparison judgment module, If the corresponding original file does not exist, the cache file is marked as junk, Cleanup module cleans marked garbage files. The unmarked cache file is a normal file, and unusual software is marked by counting the usage of the normal file, and garbage files and unusual software are cleaned by a cleaning module, so that the invention can more flexibly and intelligently clean the cache file, and the accuracy and efficiency of the file cleaning are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a software cache cleaning method and system. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of computer technology, terminal devices continue to enter the lives of more and more people. Users realize various functions through various applications of terminal equipment, which brings more convenience to life. At the same time, applications also need to bring more help to users through information exchange, which will be saved in the process of use. In the terminal device, these information data are called cached data. As time goes by, the cached data accumulates continuously. However, the storage space of the terminal device is limited. The reading rate is getting lower and lower, which leads to a decline in user experience. [0003] At present, the cleaning of cache files is usually to scan out all cache files for cleaning. There are various deficiencies in thi...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

There are various deficiencies in this cleaning method. If the user directly cleans up, it may cause the necessary cache files of some applications to be cleaned up, resulting in a decrease in the running speed of the software.

And some cache files are important data of users, directly deleting them will cause inconvenience to users

However, if you choose to clean up one by one, it will greatly increase the difficulty of operation, increase the cleaning time, and it is extremely inconvenient to clean up.

[0004] There is still an update mechanism in the existing cache technology, and some cache files become unrecognizable files over time, which also makes the system unable to effectively clean the cache, and eventually causes the system storage space to be occupied
