Apps
Todoist
Todoist’s desktop app is built on Electron, so it stores Chromium disk cache files in Cache_Data, V8 bytecode in Code Cache, and GPU rendering artifacts in GPUCache to speed up loading the task interface, icons, and web content. Those caches can become stale after app updates, account changes, or graphics driver changes, leading to display and startup issues even though your projects, tasks, labels, settings, and login stay elsewhere. Kudu removes only these disposable Electron cache files so Todoist can rebuild them cleanly.
Why clean Todoist?
- Corrupted Chromium disk cache entries can leave Todoist showing outdated task lists, missing avatars, or partial UI elements until the cache is rebuilt
- Invalidated V8 bytecode after a Todoist app update can cause an unusually slow first launch, a white window, or repeated reload behavior while Electron recompiles scripts
- Stale GPUCache data from a graphics driver update can break hardware-accelerated rendering, causing blank panes, black flashes, or flickering when opening Todoist
- Oversized Cache_Data folders keep old downloaded web assets and images around, wasting disk space and making Todoist slower to validate and replace bad cache entries
- A bad cached response can make the app appear stuck on an older view or spinner even though the Todoist service is reachable in the browser
- Broken cached frontend assets can cause buttons, sidebar icons, or theme elements to render incorrectly until the local Electron cache is cleared
