No, you don't need any of these files in active projects. You just close Sonar and all projects
down. Then, go through Windows Explorer and delete all of the files from your picture cashe folder.
When you open projects again, Sonar will recreate the files that it need in the picture cashe
folder. Also, you can decide how big the picture cashe folder should get. I think that setting is
ether in the .aud.ini or, the cakewalk.ini file in the cakewalk folder in program files on your hard
drive. The section you are looking for says something like:
pic cashe=
and then a number next to that in MB that decides the size of the picture cashe folder.

storingYou can't get rid of the picture cashe folder. However, you can empty it.
