As the title says, Cache folder needs to be moved out of Documents folder.
Why? Many Windows 10 users use the built in OneDrive for file synchronization. If EA/Dice aren't aware, the folder adds up to about 1 to 1.1 GB when everything is Cached up to ONeDrive.
1GB of Cache Crap is nonce to have synchronized any many are therefore forced to disable Documents Sync. And Deleting it won't help because they are re-created again when playing the game.
And Why is this annoying? People with low bandwidth internet gets the pain for uploading 1GB which may take a lot of time and they may not even know it.
Dice shoud move Cache from:
C:\Users\XXXXX\Documents\Battlefield 2042\cache
to someting like
C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Local\Origin\Battlefield 2042\cache
To my knowlegde, Battlefield V didn't cache large folder in Documents.
i don't know why they don't use the same folder as the game, most of the player would not have any issues then (because most use an SSD\NVME for games)
also, my document folder is placed on a classic HDD because i thought hey for documents, config such a drive would be enough never thought that games will put more than configs and saves there...
