Is it possible to move the Wwise Launcher download cache?

0 votes
Hello,
When I try to download and install Strata collections, specifically the 72GB Ambience Nature collection, my C drive fills up and stops the download because this folder takes up so much space in the process:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp\WwiseLauncher\download_cache
Is there any way to move the location of this cache? Would really like to not have to buy a new C drive and move my OS & program files.

Hello Max, unfortunately this is a known issue (ref: LAUN-2791) and is being worked on for an upcomming launcher release.

This issue has been addressed in Launcher versions >2023.2.4.3909
The launcher now downloads directly to the selected drive to a hidden (Temporary) folder before extracting to the selected destination folder. The (Temporary) folder is deleted after the collection installation is complete.
