Timed refresh causing caches folder junk

I have a power query looking at a DB and I'm using the timed refresh option to update my spread sheet.   This option seems to create a new caches folder everyocurance.   Eventually filling up the hard drive but this does not happen when the data refresh is manually triggered.    

I've attempted creating a PowerShell routine to delete these folders but it would seem the folders are in a restricted system program space and the task will not execute.   Only way to get rid of the junk files is to manually delete them.

 

what can I do to prevent the caches folder from filling up? 

thanks

Do you see SQL queries hitting your database twice?  Are some of the queries marked as cancelled?
