### Cache location

The location of the cache depends on the operating system, the defaults are:
- Linux: `$XDG_CACHE_HOME` or `~/.cache/electron/`
- MacOS: `~/Library/Caches/electron/`
- Windows: `$LOCALAPPDATA/electron/Cache` or `~/AppData/Local/electron/Cache/`

**Note:** In previous releases `~/.electron` was used as the cache location.
You can move the files in that folder to the new locations mentioned above
to reuse the cached assets.
