Extra Settings Folder
What is this folder that showed up in my folder containing my exports? CaptureOne/Settings###/filename.jpg.cos
It has settings in it? Who is this for? What is it for? I can't give it to my client so why is it in there at all?

This is a Capture One settings file.
It has been made preemptively in the event you want to edit that file in Capture One as you have with a RAW.
All files associated with Capture One will get this treatment automatically.0 -

In addition to Drew's comments, a few remarks. The subfolder creation happens when you:
- export a variant to a session folder, for example the session output folder. If you export a variant to a folder that is not part of the session, CO8 does not create the CaptureOne subfolder by default.
- export an original and you have selected the checkbox "Include Adjustments"; now CO8 has to create these subfolders to store the adjustments you made. If you do not check that box and export an original to a folder outside the session it will not create the subfolder. Note that for export from catalog the behaviour is the same.
So perhaps unchecking the checkbox mentioned will solve it for you.0 -
I think that the subfolder creation happens on more occasions than Paul has suggested. I have found that such a subfolder is also created whenever you view the contents of a folder of images from within Capture One. I just experimented with a small folder of JPG pictures that came from a friend and had never been opened in Capture One, and had no subfolders before I started. As soon as I navigated to the folder within the Capture One library tab, it created a subfolder called Capture One, and within that two sub-sub-folders called Cache and Settings81. The Cache sub-subfolder has further subfolders of its own called Proxies and Thumbnails.

Hi Ian3,
You are correct. However I was elaborating on whether or not the Export function creates these CaptureOne subfolders because the OP brought this forward.
As you explained, when running a session and browsing system folders, CO8 will create proxies and setting files each time images are found in a folder.0 -

Is that only in sessions?

Yes. In contrast, with a catalog you can not browse (image) folders. You import images from folders. Proxies and settings are stored inside the catalog only.0
