I thought older and cache files are completely removed at appropriate times (installing/uninstalling, processes completed) but space taken by the program is growing all the time. On both Windows 10 and 11. I have a SSD of 250GB, I thought it would be sufficient. But now there is only 18 GB left, while all installed programs are about 120GB. I checked, and the C:\ProgramData\Topaz Labs LLC folder takes up to 70GB. V1.6.1
You’re lucky : 119 GB for Photo+Gigapixel.
That’s where AI is heading towards. More accuracy, better performances means bigger models, more data centers, more space on your disks, more powerful graphics cards, and more memory on your system. Which subsequently implies more expensive software and more expensive hardware.
It’s slowly starting to look like a dead end, I’m afraid.
If you have downloaded all of the model files for local storage then the total size is around that 70GB size. You can use the Model Manager to remove models that you do not actively use to save space.

The new Starlight models are the biggest models at around 4-7 or so GB each.
It gets worse…since there are so many small files (like the *.h files in “\ProgramData\Topaz Labs LLC\Topaz Video\models\include”) it all takes up even more space. My Video + Photo + Gigapixel installs result in a ProgramData subdirectory that contains 143GB but consumes 161GB of disk space.
