Spectre: How to get rid of spectre.ic and spectre.fc?

$

Hi! I am running batch simulations over a large extracted design, so I need to trim down the size of the results directories to the bare minimum. The spectre.ic and spectre.fc occupy almost 50MB each, so I want to avoid generating them, but I haven't been able to figure out how...

-In my transient sim setup, tab "State file" I removed the text "spectre.ic"  and "spectre.fc" in the fields "write" and "writefinal", respectively, but the simulator seems to ignore this.

-In the "enviroment" options I have checked "Save state (ss)" and "Recover (rec)" to "n", but this also doesn't seem to have any effect.

Any ideas on how to achieve this? I'm using spectre version 15.1.0.679.isr14 64bit.

Thanks and regards,

Jorge.

P.S. I also noticed that even though I made sure to have no outputs selected for saving/plotting, and my "save all" setup is as in shown below, a "tran.tran.tran.dat" is still generated in the results directory. When I check its contents with the Results Browser tool, I see that one voltage node of my circuit is still being saved. Is this a bug, or spectre must by all means save at least one circuit node?
