Apps
Todoist
Todoist’s desktop app is built on Electron, so it keeps Chromium-style browser cache data on disk to speed up loading its web interface, task lists, icons, avatars, and bundled scripts. That includes HTTP disk cache files in Cache_Data, compiled JavaScript in the Code Cache, and GPU rendering cache files in GPUCache used for accelerated drawing. Kudu removes those temporary caches when they become stale or oversized, without touching your tasks, projects, labels, account sign-in, or app settings.
Why clean Todoist?
- Stale HTTP cache entries can leave Todoist showing outdated task views, missing avatars, or broken icons until the app is forced to fetch fresh files
- Invalidated Electron Code Cache after a Todoist update can cause a noticeably slow first launch, white window, or delayed sidebar rendering while scripts are recompiled
- Corrupted Cache_Data files can make the desktop app load an incomplete interface, with empty panes or CSS that does not match the current version
- Old GPUCache shader and raster data can conflict with a graphics driver update, causing flicker, black areas, or sluggish scrolling until Chromium rebuilds the cache
- An oversized browser cache wastes disk space with old responses for task content and static assets, especially on systems where Todoist stays open for long periods
- Cached API and asset responses that no longer match the current app bundle can trigger repeated reloads, sign-in loops, or elements that never finish drawing
- Cleaning these temporary caches forces Todoist to rebuild fresh local web assets, which often fixes launch and rendering problems without removing any tasks or personal data
