Summary

When changing the "Disk Cache Location" in Olive settings (Preferences > Disk > Disk Cache Location), Olive creates a folder for every keypress. I'm guessing the verification routine that runs to check if the folder is there creates the enclosing folder if it doesn't exist, like mkdir -p.

Additional Information / Output

Results in this hilarious mess on my drive:

Ideally the folder verification routine described above should only run once?

I can confirm this on Windows 10
