Some podcasts have massive amounts of ".txt" files of deleted podcasts episodes. These files apparently carry the text description of the episode and are labeled exactly the same as the episode.
These are downloaded with the podcast, but when you delete a podcast episode it doesn't delete the related ".txt" file.
Would it be possible to have those files deleted when a podcast is downloaded, as I found you can accumulate a large number of files in the folders.
I have tried deleting the .txt file but the description from the file is still listed in MusicBee. I don't know how the program works so I am unsure if the info is stored before in a database.
Thank you.

Under the Cloak of UEFI Secure Boot: Introducing CVE-2024-7344 ESET researchers have identified a new vulnerability, CVE-2024-7344, that allows attackers to bypass UEFI Secure Boot on most UEFI-based systems. This flaw enables the execution of untrusted code during system boot, potentially leading to the deployment of malicious UEFI bootkits. Affected users should apply available patches to mitigate this risk.
