Therefore you need to keep cleaning shader cache more often, most obviously when reinstalling drivers or programs.
To make it easier you can use batch scripts on windows like this:
Code:
@echo off
echo.
echo.
echo ***** AMD DXCache Cleanup *****
echo.
echo.
set folder="C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\AMD\DxCache"
echo Selected folder is %folder% - press any key if ok
echo.
explorer %folder%
pause
echo.
cd /d %folder%
for /F "delims=" %%i in ('dir /b') do (rmdir "%%i" /s/q || del "%%i" /s/q)
echo.
timeout 5

You really have no idea what you're talking about do you? You make posts that are uninformed basically claiming you reinvented the wheel to be better without understanding why choices have been made in the first place and have made issues on the bugtracker with a "solution" that is absolutely ludicrous. This "solution" is also one of the former and actually has absolutely nothing to do with the issue at hand, which was that DOLPHIN's shadercache was broken somehow. You are now developing "fixes" that are not needed at all, you know what you should do? Put that time into actually making Dolphin better by creating PR's with actual fixes to issues. That is way more useful.
And users do not have to learn anything, if something is unintuitive then it is a problem on the developers side, not the users side.
If something breaks because of updates, it is not the user's fault, it's the developer that made the update his fault.
