Ubisoft Connect
Ubisoft Connect stores a Chromium-based web cache under the Ubisoft Game Launcher cache folder for its embedded storefront, news feed, login pages, and social overlays, along with accumulated client log files in the logs folder. That cache can include HTTP disk cache entries, image assets, JavaScript bundles, cookies and other web session data used to speed up the interface, while the logs record launcher updates, authentication attempts, downloads, and game detection events. Kudu removes the downloaded web cache and old log files without touching installed games, save data, account details, or launcher settings.
Why clean Ubisoft Connect?
- Stale Chromium web cache after a launcher update can leave the Store or News tabs half-rendered, with missing banners, blank panels, or buttons that do nothing until fresh files are downloaded
- Expired or corrupted cached login page assets can cause repeated sign-in loops, white screens, or an embedded browser window that never finishes loading even though the Ubisoft service is online
- Old cached API responses and images sometimes make the library or game artwork look out of date, so owned titles, promotions, or friends activity do not refresh correctly until the cache is cleared
- Large log folders grow from update checks, patching, authentication, and game launch events, wasting SSD space and making support bundles or profile backups unnecessarily large
- A damaged disk cache can make the client feel sluggish when opening overlays or switching tabs, because the embedded web UI keeps retrying bad cached resources before fetching clean copies
- After CDN changes or interrupted downloads, cached JavaScript and style files may no longer match the current backend, which shows up as broken layout, endless spinners, or tabs that fail to populate
