Direct file open enables you to open and edit files directly from your Tresorit app — even if the file is in a folder that’s not syncing at the moment. If you edit a file from Tresorit, changes you make will be saved to the cloud automatically.

How long are temp files stored on Windows?
Tresorit Drive 2.0
Your ten most recently accessed files are temporarily stored in your profile folder until you close the application. Additionally, Tresorit maintains a cache of up to 1000 files for a period of one day. This means that any file you have not opened within the last 24 hours will be automatically removed from the cache.
Tresorit Drive 1.0
Tresorit won’t cache files even if you are using direct file open; however, Windows does. These temp files are stored for 60 seconds by default.
This is a computer-wide setting and can be changed in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\MRxDAV\Parameters\FileNotFoundCacheLifeTimeInSec
