The cache file location has moved!

Obsidian Release v0.8.7 changes:
The cache file that was previously in vault/.obsidian/cache is now moved to the “APPDATA” folder under APPDATA\Obsidian\ObsidianCache\VAULT-ID.json.

I solved the problem for me by making a symbolic link named cache on the old location to the new file

Yeah, I've been needing to fix this, but haven't got the time yet – if someone wants to open a PR, the easiest way to get the appdata folder would probably be

• copy how application paths are being generated in https://github.com/sindresorhus/env-paths/blob/master/index.js
• figure out some way to derive the vault id from the vault directory (not sure how to do this...)

I asked in Discord, we'll see if a dev can provide a solution

No answers in Discord ¯_(ツ)_/¯ I asked here https://forum.obsidian.md/t/is-there-any-way-to-derive-the-vault-id-from-the-vault-directory/5573
