I wasn't able to reproduce the issue.

The cache folder being deleted is intentional, byond can recreate it easily, and thats what i'm seeing.

HOWEVER I have seen a bug from other users on /tg/'s 512 test server where their byond folder went away and they couldn't get it back unless they restarted then reinstalled.

This could be a windows 10 only bug or other wise not showing up on windows 7.

well i think its the case is there any fix for that?
if you manually create the cache folder everything should work again
it doesn't need any contents, it just needs to exist.
so i i need to delete it and make a new one every time i want to clean my cache thats right?
