Star Citizen Cache Cleaner v2.0
A complete toolkit for cleaning Star Citizen cache with digital signing and automated launcher functionality. This is not meant to be taken seriously, nevertheless it is very functional. More of a proof of concept, and personal coding challenge.
The βSC launcherβ now includes this functionality, and is the prefered method.
This script does not modify any Star Citizen files or RAM. It simply moves the cache files to the recycle bin. Thatβs it!
