Hi @marxmann
As noted here, Garbage collection of old cache files won’t work if WordPress can’t find wp-cron.php or if DISABLE_WP_CRON is set to true in your wp-config.php file.
You might be able to set up an external or manual cron to work on your site, but that would be beyond what we can support here.
Garbage collection . So without cron will the plugin work, yes or no? I am not a programmer that’s why i use plugins.
Thanks
You can use it. However, the cache won’t be automatically cleaned. For mostly static sites, this shouldn’t be an issue as described here:

Hi @marxmann You could use one of the free cron job services options mentioned in this article here https://support.shorturl.gg/business-marketing-and-seo-forums/topic/i-found-this-cool-site-for-running-cron-jobs-for-free/ if your host has disabled your cron jobs.
As mentioned by Bruce, the WP cron can be manually run at ‘wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron’. That can be done automatically if you have access to your server’s cron jobs. I use ‘wget -q -O -‘ and run it hourly. Now, how to turn off that warning?
