Open the original- What it measures
- This is the clean-up of files a crash leaves behind, not the normal deletion after a job.
- What it does not show
- The 24 hours is a minimum age before removal, not a maximum: removal happens on a later server start, and the page gives no cap.
In the data
A row of How Long Voice Assistants Keep Your Recordings, as Qwen Scribe, crash leftovers: 1 days.
