ChromeDriver Eating Disk Space

I'm not sure what is going on, but every time I run my application (vb.net) Chromedriver eats disk space. I even added another 40GB (Virtual Machine) and now that is gone!

I'm doing the typical:

Dim driver as ChromeDriver = New Chromedriver
driver.Navigate.GoToUrl.....

both on form load, essentially. I constantly re-work the code, so I exit out and have to manually close the console window, maybe that is causing the issue. Will have to put some ChromeDriver destroying instead of letting garbage collection manage that.

HOWEVER: Where are these files so that I can delete them?

Most likely the files are folders named scoped_dir* inside C://Users/user/AppData/Local/Temp. You can type %APPDATA% in the search window on your taskbar to go to AppData folder and then remove those scoped folders.
