Rolling Cache Installation question!

I have a question concerning the Rolling cache for msfs2024 .

I have installed my Msfs2024 into my D:drive 4tb ssd .

Into my C:drive 2tb ssd , my windows are installed plus some other addons .

In this drive ( C ) My Msfs2024 is installed … default location , into packages , microsoft limitless etc.

There is a rolling cache of 64gbs ( I have set this limit ) .

Now my question :

Into my D: drive there is also a Rolling cache of 64 gbs .

Is it correct for a rolling cache to installed in 2 different drives ?

No, but if you have made a change to the Rolling Cache location, the original file does not automatically get deleted so it will show in both places. You can manually delete the RC file that is not being used. Check in the sim settings for the current location being used and then delete the one that isn’t

Great

Thanks a lot !

I will delete the one in my d : drive then !

I tried your suggestion .

Unfortunately it does not work .

I deleted the one that it is in my D drive and left the one in my C drive .

RC is Created in both of my drives , despite choosing RC Path my C drive !

Screenshot file explorer images of the folders containing the rollingcache.ccc file in both C: and D: drives.

You’re missing the screenshots of the file folders. When you take the screenshots please make sure the file date and times are shown.

FS2024 can only have one rolling cache but perhaps you have a corrupted localprofile. Close the sim and delete both files on C and D then start the sim. The sim will recreate the file if it’s missing. Then confirm it created it in the desired path. If not, reset the path to the correct location and repeat the last step. If that doesn’t work you will need to delete the localprofie file to reset it. This will reset the RC file to its default location, as well as few other parameters, also to their defaults.

The file is located at: C:\Users\Phil\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState

Hello guys , and thanks for your help .

Something is wrong with my Installation of Msfs2024 .

The Screenshot below is my C:drive

The Screenshots below are from my D:drive

I have exactly the same installation of msfs2024 in both drives .

I just want to use my D drive to install Addons from other developers into my Community folder !

That is perfectly normal and there is nothing wrong with your installation. The folders on the C: drive are actually symbolic links, notice the blue arrow on the folders, that actually point to the real folders on your D: drive. They are not duplicates. One simply points to the other. I have the same. In my case I installed on my F: drive.

Yep, that’s what I thought we’d see.
The way Microsoft handles these symbolic links can be pretty confusing.

Copied

Thanks a lot for the clarification !

Last question :

If i reduce my RC from 64gb to 32gb , am I going to notice any difference or not ?

( Just to save some HD space ) .

Sadly, nobody knows, because nobody knows exactly what the RC does or how it works.
But 32GB should be enough.

No problem

Thanks again !
