Status](https://github.com/WilliamVenner/blackhole/workflows/build/badge.svg)](https://github.com/WilliamVenner/blackhole/actions?query=workflow%3Abuild)\n\nBlackhole is a simple program that creates a folder in your computer's home directory where **_files may not return_**.\n\nEvery time you start your computer/log into your user account, if contents are present, the Blackhole directory is moved to your computer's Recycle Bin/Trash, where you can restore it if needed.\n\n## Use Cases\n\n* Temporary downloads\n* Temporary torrents\n* Temporary extractions of specific files in archives (`.zip`, `.tar`, `.rar`, etc)\n* Temporary storage for files waiting to be uploaded elsewhere, e.g. via FTP\n* Temporary downloads of files from instant messaging\n* A recoverable/very large/non-volatile (but slower) ramdisk\n* A glorified temp folder/recycle bin\n\n_And much more..._\n\n## Releases\n\n[Click here](https://github.com/WilliamVenner/blackhole/releases) for pre-built binaries.\n\n## Windows\n\n* Blackhole will automatically add itself to your startup programs via the registry.\n* The `BLACKHOLE` directory will be moved to the Recycle Bin every time you login, if contents are present.\n* The `BLACKHOLE` directory will automatically be added to the Quick Access locations.\n\n#### File Location\n\n`%USERPROFILE%/BLACKHOLE`\n\n## macOS\n\n* Blackhole will automatically add itself to your login items when you first run the program.\n* The `BLACKHOLE` directory will be moved to the Trash every time you login, if contents are present.\n* The `BLACKHOLE` directory will automatically be added to the Finder sidebar.\n\n#### File Location\n\n`$HOME/BLACKHOLE`\n\n## Screenshots\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n\t\u003cimg alt=\"Windows\"
