Ignore Qt-created 'cache' directory #1962

Closed ashemedai closed 6 months ago

ashemedai commented 6 months ago

Ignore Qt-created 'cache' directory, which currently pops up in the instance overview window.

Just to make sure this is recorded here:

@Qudix removed this two years ago, curious if there was a particular reason for that
isanae added this and qtwebengine 4 years ago, but at that point we were using Qt 5. Could it be that qtwebengine can be removed with Qt 6.5 we are using? I have seen no recorded cases on my installation. I did, however, see cache in the instance overview.

Because I assumed I fixed what was causing the cache folder to be generated there. Of course I think I remember changing my mind about removing it from the ignore list after the fact.

Ideally I feel like we really should be checking for the existence of a ModOrganizer.ini instead of just treating any folder as an instance.

Ah, that's a good one. Might give that a crack tomorrow.

The cache folder gets recreated when I go to Nexus Info from the mod's information window. If I delete that directory with an actively running MO2, I get the following in the log until I fully restart MO2:
