IMPORTANT! When the patch has been deployed, your client(s) patched and you log in for the first time, the cache folder will migrate to the new location specified in the patch notes. Depending on the size of your cache folder, this may be hardly noticeable, it may take several minutes. Please be patient while this happens and do NOT restart your client if it appears to 'hang'! Thank you.
SO DELETE THE OLD STUFF and then the patch fill go a little bit faster

Got a question here, If you run multiple accounts on the same computer ( Winders XP ) the cache folder is being moved to " Drive letter :\documents and settings\%username%\Documents\EvE\Cache " so for thoes who are confused it's " My Documents " if all your clients do the same thing your going to end up with a mess as clients tend to be set up diffrently especially if you have one install per client like I do. Is their a way around this so you can redirect your cache to somewhere else like back to the original place and please note this is on XP and NOT Vista so the turning of of protected file storage is not going to be a fix.
Thanks for any replies in advance.
The location of the settings folder can be forced to remain where it was stored prior to Revelations II. This can be useful when connecting a second client to a test server and not mix settings between the clients.
* If the user choses to revert to this storage format, the shortcut needs to be modified to refer to: "C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE\eve.exe /end /LUA:OFF". Note the switches (/end and /LUA:OFF) are case sensitive.
any questions on that ?

Game capture, log and cache folders have moved from "C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE"
* The capture and logs folders are now located under "My Documents\EVE"
* The settings and cache folder are stored under
o Windows 2000/XP: "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application Data\CCP\EVE"
o Windows Vista: "C:\Users\%user%\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE"

I am not sure what this really means. I keep my C drive relatively small (58GB) and never use the myDocuments folder at all. Frankly I find that MyDocuments actually translates to "Bill Gates' Documents" on the windoze OS.
I really want EVE just to use the D drive (a terabyte RAID5 array) for all its storage. It is installed in the directory D:\games\CCP. If I use the above command line option will ALL data be stored within the EVE install tree?
then start it with D:\games\CCPEVE\eve.exe /end /LUA:OFF and all your stuff will be stored there and not in your "C:\BILL GATES DOCS" folders.
I'm right
