I right clicked on the folder where all my files are stored, choose cache then purge, but there are still 978 files in the permanent cache.
What am I doing wrong, or is there a way to see which files are cached?

Mario

The file name of the cache file is the unique object identifier (OID) of the file.
So, 12345.jpg is the cache file for the file with the OID 12345

You can use the "Find file by Oid" option the IMatch File Finder app to figure out what the file is and if it still exists.

Or, you just delete the cache folder while IMatch is not running. It will be re-created automatically.
