You can use the following setting to adjust where those files get stored though: https://www.displayfusion.com/AdvancedSettings/#wallpaper_generatedfolderoverride

In my advanced settings I have "generate larger files" selected. Yet in the appdata folder, the smaller 7mb jpg is being generated along with the 30mb png. Is there a way to disable the generation of the jpg image? 7mb every minute for 8 hours is still 3.3 gb written per average day.

I've only recently found out about the disk usage of display fusion, and was writing a whopping 60gb a day with 30 seconds image changes to my SSD. So far I've created a directory junction link to a platter drive, but an option to change the display fusion directory would be nice to save people hardware and hassle in the future.

Thanks for the help! ]]>
