Delete the rolling cache??


Recommended Posts

I've seen this step - deleting the rolling cache - suggested frequently on the forums. Fortunately I've not encountered the various issues that this procedure helps. However... it is worthwhile to know how to do this. As I had NO idea I Googled it and found this simple tutorial that even I can understand -lol - so if it helps someone else too? Winner-winner, chicken-dinner.

You can do it this way from within the simulator, but personally, I just go to the rolling cache folder I created in windows explorer and delete it there.

This is true, however for me, if I am in the sim, deleting it from there is a LOT easier, no need to navigate to the exact folder (which can be nested pretty deep).

it can help eliminate some stutters... A lot of users delete their rolling cache after updates, hopefully avoiding update issues....  others have it turned off, I'm in this group, I seldom fly in the same area.....

Not for me as I have it one folder deep on another drive (MSFS will not allow you to put it in the root directory). Luckily, I have 2 NVME drives as I moved the sim from my old 1TB drive to a new 2TB drive.
