C:\Users\\AppData\Local\UnrealEngine\Common\DerivedDataCache\4\8 "Filling Up my C Drive!"

Guys, I just had a Huge Scarey moment…

While i was compiling 58+K Shaders, after moving the location of the DerivedDataCacheShader Cache path in the editor, everything froze up and then my extra large drive that i had moved it to disappeared, and I was in a Ghast.

Then I realized there was so much heat, i raced over and put the laptop in the freezer…waited for a few moments…said a few things :rolleyes:

Then booted back up and low and behold the drive was back…

I was very glad that I was backing everything up to a external drive…but I was very gratiful that the drive came back…

Lesson learned…

i am going to place theDerivedDataCache Folder on the external Drive…

Now, I am going back to Level Design…***.:slight_smile: ***

Regards,
