I was making a movie and a message came up saying that there was not enough room in my temporary folder. It was a hidden folder.I looked in the folder and it was 57 Gb. Can I delete everything in that folder without it affecting anything ? thanks

57 gb is a huge folder, are you sure it's that size? You can empty temp folder but it sounds like another problem. Re-direct rendered movie to another partition if you have one.

Apparently when you make a dvd in DVD Architect it saves it to a temp folder. It was a hidden folder. C:/ documents and settings/(insert your user name here )/localsettings/temp/mydvd. I clicked on some of the files and they were copies of all the dvds I have made. I deleted all the temp files and recovered 57 Gb.

The full version of DVDA does the same thing, but it also cleans up after itself after the prepare process is done. I wonder if you've got a bum install or have some option/preference set weird somewhere.
