Interesting. So potentially downloading the entire browser cache each time? Goodness.

  I remember "fixing" the university's computers by preventing the browser cache from being downloaded. at every Windows startup. That was maybe 15 years ago?

  Even better - Java devs who use the default settings for Maven will have their entire local repo copied over the network. At my company people would remotely log in on Sunday evenings to avoid the hou long wait while a few hundred gigs get copied across the network. Why not chnage the location of the local repo, you ask? Of course our machines are locked down and we have no access to the local drive...

  That's the difference between %APPDATA% (AppData/Roaming) and %LOCALAPPDATA% (AppData/Local). Caches should go into local appdata, or %TEMP% if you're feeling spicy.
