Does anyone know what the folder "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Caches" is for? (Yes, it contains cache files... I get that far! 
).
The reason I'm asking is that a couple of times in the last couple of weeks the disc utilisation on my C: drive (SSD) has been continuously at 100% and I've traced the cause as writes and reads of files in this folder.
When I rename or delete the folder and reboot the problem goes away. Windows recreates the folder and starts writing to files in it. This happens but the 100% disc utilisation issue does not recur and the problem is solved... till the next time.
Example filenames in this folder are:
SearchIndexer.exe, I think, is the main process writing to the folder so maybe I've answered my own question, but what I'm really hoping for is to find a way for the problem to never recur.
I tried rebuilding the Windows Search database manually through the interface but I've had the 100% disc utilisation issue after I did that.
Any ideas?
