Code & File Management

Troubleshoot long code files, system cache glitches, and disk storage corruption errors in Atoms.

Managing Very Long Code Files

When working with large codebases, prompt Atoms to break down monolithic files into smaller, modular components and utility modules so no single file becomes too large or difficult to maintain.

Fixing Disk Storage & Cache Issues ("System File Corrupted")

If you see the error: "The current project system file is corrupted. You can remix a previously correct version or contact support.", try these fixes in order:

Fix 1: Refresh & Connection Check

1. Refresh your browser page.
2. Verify your internet connection.

Fix 2: Clear Browser Cache

Outdated cached files often trigger false storage errors:

• Chrome: ⋮ → Settings → Privacy & Security → Clear browsing data → select "Cached images and files" → Clear data.
• Safari: Preferences → Advanced → check "Show Develop menu" → Develop → Empty Caches.
• Firefox: ☰ → Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data → Clear Data.

Fix 3: Free Up Disk Storage

1. Go to Settings → General → Disk Space → Manage to check your usage.
2. Delete unused chats from your Projects page and make sure to check "Delete disk space".

Fix 4: Remix or Contact Support

If the error persists after clearing cache and freeing disk space, remix your project to a previous working version or contact support via chat.
