FACULTY: How to save storage space by deleting old videos in ScreenPal (formerly Screencast-o-matic)

f you create many long-form screencasts using ScreenPal (formerly Screencast-o-matic), you may notice that your computer’s storage fills up over time. This is often due to .f2 data files located in the Screencast-o-matic folder on your hard drive.

The .f2 file format is used by ScreenPal to store your video project data. These files can become quite large depending on the resolution and length of your recordings.


🧹 Recommended Cleanup Method

Instead of deleting .f2 files manually from your documents folder, we recommend managing your storage from within the ScreenPal video editor. Specifically, delete video projects that:

  • You’ve already published

  • You no longer need

  • You do not plan to edit in the future
