Clear Tresorit Cache on Mac

Clearing the Tresorit cache empties the app data folder that holds its sync state and session keys, which can free some space without touching your files. Quit the app first, and check whether it offers its own option before you remove anything by hand.

Tresorit cache folders you can clear

Tresorit has no separate cache folder. Its folders hold settings and your own data, so there is nothing to clear safely by hand.

What the Tresorit cache holds and when clearing it helps

Specific to Tresorit

The cache sits in the Application Support folder for Tresorit, alongside logs and other app data. Because Tresorit encrypts files before upload, that folder keeps sync state and session keys, while your files stay encrypted in your account and synced folders. Clearing it helps when the folder has grown large, typically 500 MB – 5 GB, or when sync seems stuck. The files themselves are not what this folder holds, so emptying it does not change your documents.

What happens after you clear the Tresorit cache

Your files are not removed, because they remain in your Tresorit account and synced folders. The session keys and sync state stored in that folder are cleared, so you may need to sign in again the next time you open the app. Your plan is tied to your account and is not cancelled by clearing the cache. After signing in, give the app time to check sync again, and leave your synced folders alone while it does.

Frequently asked questions

Yes.
Will I have to sign in again after clearing the cache?
You may, because the session keys stored in that folder are removed. Your files and your plan stay the same either way.
Can I clear the cache while the app is still open?
It is safer to quit the app first, since it may be writing to that folder. Reopen it only after the cache has been cleared.
