YoloDownloads Folder is created when listening to music

Am using Sony Xperia Z1 Compact. Well the problem is whenever I play music on my device this Yolo downloads folder keeps on coming back storing all albums art. Now well I want to remove it. It's spanning for around 200-300 MB. I delete the folder it comes back next day.
I use only default Music Player. It never used to happen earlier. There are no other music apps.

OK now after checking out a bit it's created by uc music app. And that app also is available as Yolo Music on app store.

Now I've Uninstalled the uc browser and installed and then removed Yolo Music. The also the folder keeps on creating. Please help.

Creating a .nomedia file in that folder should result in none of the album art appearing in the Album app, though the folder will probably still be created. Sorry for not explaining this before.

If none of the previous suggestions has stopped this folder from being recreated then I'm afraid that a factory reset is needed Nolramlb pointed towards previously.

Go in your app list and make sure uc music and uc browser are fully gone.

Hi @amanchauhanofficial2,

If uninstalling the related apps aren't enough to keep this folder from being recreated then I suggest that you contact the app developer directly with this feedback. You should be able to find contact information on the app's Google Play page.

Hello Sir, 

Thank you for your reply, I tried to contact the developer too but no help. Uc Brower is not in my app list now, I have fully uninstalled the apps.

@amanchauhanofficial2 Could you test your phone in safe mode and see if the folder reappears then as well?

Sir, 

I tried in "safe mode' too, actually the problem is with music player. I play something in application and the album art automatically transfer to YoloDownlods folder.

Can you go into music app settings and check if "download music info" is off or on.
