This is my take on this topic:

@JuloGang

FEATURE REQUEST/NOTE TO DEVELOPERS/PUBLISHERS:
In my opinion, what we are trying to do, already with some good success, in this community thread, should be already managed during installation and with a proper separate launcher executable:

A-Select the installation folder for the launcher (a proper separate launcher executable, small window, not resource intensive, à la Star Citizen or à la DCS), with recommendations to choose an SSD for significantly improved loading times. This launcher would handle game content updates, rolling cache and manual cache, and even have a button to check game file integrity, and of course a button to launch the Flight Simulator executble itself.
B-In the launcher, select the installation folder for the 20% most accessed files of the game content, with recommendations to choose an SSD for very significantly improved loading times.
C-In the launcher, select the installation folder for the 80% less accessed files of the game content, with indication that and HDD drive can be selected and that selecting an SSD drive will result only in limited loading times improvements.

PROBLEM IDENTIFIED: (needs to be fixed by developers imho)
The startup sequence accesses for a significant while, both my rolling cache file and my manual cache file in:
E:\H\Games\MFSCache\ROLLINGCACHE.CCC
E:\H\Games\MFSCache\MANUALCACHE.CCC
Clearly, I don’t see the point in that at all, this cache data is not useful at all at this point. This should be optimized by the developers to be only accessed later when loading options and/or when launching a flight imho.
