    ZygorGuidesViewer.lua.tmp has grown to 451GB in size???

    Wondered why my system drive had run out of space and after digging into it, I found that this file was the culprit. What gives and why?

    <edit> had to delete it to make my system useable
    <edit2> file was located in: \_retail\WTF\Account\<AccountName>\SavedVariables

    This is most likely caused by something that mistakenly loops itself in the file, however, we're not aware of any example of this currently, so for now you've done the right thing by deleting that file. We recommend also deleting ZygorGuidesViewer.lua and making sure you're using the latest version and letting us know if you encounter the problem again after that.

        That .tmp file should be deleted when you exit the game, however if the game crashes or you just close the window without shutting down the game via the game menu that can sometimes bug it and cause that .tmp file to not get deleted but instead just start growing massively. A few MB in size is fine while you're playing as long as it's deleted automatically after you exit the game.
