I really wish I could configure this crap to cache somewhere other than my C: drive Or better yet, how about asking me where I want to store my models?

  I haven’t used windows in a while but I thought it supported some form of cross-volume symlink? Or at least mounting an image stored on another volume to an arbitrary path.

    Links in windows are a thing, but not well known. I must have been using Windows for close to 20 years before I realized they were in there. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/hard-links-and-junctions https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/hard-... https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/mklink https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administrat...

      mklink /d on windows has saved me many times.

      So not-well-known that several tools that really should know better don't check for junctions with occasionally disastrous results in a fs walk. (Using junctions sounded really clever to me until this had me up all night figuring out why the backup system crashed.)

  On linux there's the XDG_CACHE_HOME env variable for pip, but strangely enough there doesn't seem to be an windows equivalent.
