There are going to be 2 cleaning methods when it comes to the cache for VRChatIn case you're curious as to what the cache actually is, it's a folder set in your AppData that downloads all the maps you visit, along with some other cookies and what not.Method 1 is simply clearing the cache and starting anew. This is the simplest method, and assuming you don't want 30gb of downloaded maps that you no longer visit on your C: drive, the best method as well.Method 2 is redirecting the cache so that your poor C: drive is not suffering from storage abuse. This comes in handy for SSD users who might be wondering why their drive is suddenly so full.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Note: A Symbolic Link is not the same thing as a Shortcut.A "Symbolic Link" can actually act like a substitute for a directory or file in a functional way, and is commonly used in Unix/Linux environments. Although there is apparently support for this in Windows, I haven't seen any actual use of it yet.A "Shortcut" is just a regular file that has a reference to the destination file or directory along with some other things like the icon to be displayed. Unlike a Symbolic Link, you cannot "cd ./shortcut-name" in DOS (in Unix/Linux you can "cd ./symlink-name" and it will work just like a real sub-directory).Also, in most Windows applications, when you click on a Shortcut in any File->Open GUI dialogue, your filename field gets populated with that shortcut's filename as well as it acting like a sub-directory, while in Unix/Linux the GUI treats a Symbolic Link as a path (without modifying the filename field).Information and explanation can be found here.
