My understanding as well. It orphans the cache element in WMI. Seems like it is 
misdocumented?

Also about client cache but different question… I noticed on the link you 
posted, it says this:

Note
The cache folder is a regular Windows folder, so you can automate deletion of 
the folder contents using a script, a utility, or with the PowerShell cmdlet 
Remove-Item.

In the “old’n days” of ConfigMgr (2007-2012), I always heard (maybe 
incorrectly) it was a no-no to delete folders from ccmcache because they were 
tied to WMI so closely and if you deleted a cache folder and then tried to run 
the deployment again from Run Advertised Programs/Software Center, WMI would 
think the content still existed in ccmcache and would just fail to run. It 
wasn’t smart enough to know that it had to be downloaded again.

Doesn’t sound like that’s true anymore…? Or did I misunderstand it in previous 
versions of CM.

Nice find Russ – it would make too much sense to actually put that on the page 
that client setting page in the documentation. Guess I’ll add it ☺

In ConfigMgr CB, these options exist for controlling cache size in client 
settings:

[Inline image 1]

Which setting takes precedence, size or percentage? For instance, if I have a 
100GB hard drive and I set the size to 10,000MB, but set the percentage to 1% 
(1,000MB), which wins? I can't find anything in the documentation that gives a 
clear answer.
