Clear Filmora Cache on Mac
To clear the Filmora cache, save your open projects and check for autosave copies first, then use the app's own cache option if it has one. Afterwards the app rebuilds its cache, so the first start is slower and you may be asked to sign in.

Filmora cache folders you can clear
Filmora has no separate cache folder. Its folders hold settings and your own data, so there is nothing to clear safely by hand.
What the Filmora cache holds
Specific to Filmora
The Filmora data folder in Application Support mixes cached effects and resources with settings and autosave copies of unfinished projects. Those autosaves are your own work, so never delete the whole folder to clear it. Clearing usually helps when previews or effects load incorrectly or the app behaves oddly after an update. A folder in the 1 GB – 30 GB range is common for this kind of data, so its size alone does not indicate a fault.
What happens after you clear the Filmora cache
Filmora rebuilds the cached effects and resources the next time you open it, so the first start is slower while they load again. Project files are unaffected because they are saved wherever you chose, and any kept autosaves stay where they are. Your paid plan is linked to your Wondershare ID, and the effects store requires sign-in, so you may be asked to sign in again.
