Cache location change results in wrong directory being measured for space

Opened SMM for the first time since the SMM update. Got a "low disk space" message for the cache directory, which was correct. (My C: SSD is very small.) Changed the location to my D: drive, which has ample space, but SMM gave me the same message immediately thereafter, as though it was measuring C: even though it showed the new D: directory in the message. I have attached the debug ZIP and a screencap of the message.

Does the message still show up if you restart SMM?

I wanted to hold it open in case y'all needed more info while it was running. I'll restart it now.

Hmm, I think it fully failed to change the cache dir, because it tried to move it while the files in the cache were open

No message popup after a SMM restart.

Maybe it still saved the new path though Cool

Cache location is on D: now, according to the dialog.

Mircea•3mo ago

Yeah, looks like moving the data in the cache dir is broken, but setting it works (after a restart)

Cool. Not a game-breaking bug, just informational in nature, but you guys know about it now. Thank you.
