GPU cache folder

So about an hour or 2 ago a folder named GPUCache appeared on my desktop. What should I do with it?

What, if anything, did you install just before that folder appeared?

I didnt install nothing. It actually happened when I tried to open Adobe Creative Cloud I think.

Judging by the name "cache", I would imagine that if the project is not something you'll be touching frequently in the near future, you can simply delete it. I only suggest avoiding that otherwise as you'd waste time rebuilding the cache otherwise.

But if the stuff it probably cached is no longer useful, neither is the cache, ergo, no need to keep it around for any of the speed enhancements it would otherwise have offered.

Well I will just go delete it then. Thanks for the help!!!
