Temp Folder Productivity Hack

Published: at 12:55 PM

Keeping a clean environment helps your productivity.

Every time you walk around and see a mess, it’ll pollute your brain space.

This is true in digital form too.

To help combat this I have a .bat file that runs everytime I start up my computer.

One of the things it does is that it deletes a folder I have on my desktop and remakes it.

It’s called “temp”.

Throughout my day as a web developer/designer, clients send me assets to add to their sites.

Instead of keeping everything in one huge downloads folder, I save those assets to “temp”, and upload them to the site.

Then I don’t have to think about removing those files I’ll never use again from my computer, they’ll just be gone next time I boot up.
