Managing Temporary Files Cached in the Overlay

1. On the Cached Content tab, you will see all the files currently cached in the RAM overlay. Three commands

are available:

Commit will save a file from the cache to permanent storage, deleting the file from the overlay and

overwriting the original.

Restore will return the file to its original state, removing it from the overlay cache and discarding the

changes that caused it to be added to the cache.

Add to exclusion list adds the file to the exclusion list after the next restart. Because this makes the file

read-only, if it is executed on the wrong file it may render your system or particular applications inoperable.

2. The most common usage of the Cache Content filter will likely be to permanently write content to the hard

drive. To do this, select the file you wish to write to permanent memory and click on the commit button.

This will delete the file from the cached overlay and replace the current file in permanent storage with the

modified cache file.

Keep in mind that committing a configuration or application file will permanently alter the setup and/or

performance of the application or system.
