Note that simply starting the browser doesn't prompt it try and read those files, you need to do something more involving like watching Youtube for example.

I'm changing the logging period from 10 minutes to 10 days, as in this case it's better not to suppress the error entirely as the information in those files might be used for something more substantial in the future.
I pushed the changes to beta and edge, the latter of which is currently building. Once the change is confirmed I'll push it to stable too.
