The "Clear Downloaded Content Cache" button stopped working.

[p_trevogin]

After the latest update, which I have experienced right on this very day, the said button stopped working for some reason. It is a very huge problem for me, because my laptop is not that good, and this function allows me to get rid of some temporary files, allowing for more memory space, which kinda reduces some percentage of the lag.
But now, when this function got messed up, I cannot do that. It is currently occupying appproximately 2.04GB of my memory, and all of this came from merely two hours of gameplay. I am really worried about this problem.
Please, if you had experienced the same problem before, tell me how you solved it. Or can this problem be solved in the first place? Please, dear people, I really need your help... I already cannot enter worlds with more than 17 people in it, because then I start to get crazy lags and freezes, after which my only option becomes just shutting down my laptop and rebooting it again. And now this...

It does not work for me as well. However, I do have an alternate solution that works manually. Go to Appdata-Locallow-VRChat-vrchat in File Explorer, Go to "Cache-WindowPlayer" and delete all the folders in there. This deletes the downloaded Cache files without issue.

So, apparently, it is not only me who has such problem. And now I hope that the devs will soon make a hotfix for it, because otherwise it would be almost impossible to play...

So, the recent update made it so you can clear your cache again, which is really good. Although, the way you do it is not as convenient as it previously was. Don't get me wrong, this is still undoubtedly much better than nothing after all, but the previous way of clearing cache - doing it in-game, in literal seconds, without any need to logout - was definetely much, much better.
I hope that this was just the hotfix we were waiting for. And that in the next updates they will make it the way it was before. I really-really hope...
