I'm sure this question has been raised before but I can't find an
answer. So...

I suddenly lost 20Gbytes of disc space on a Windows 10 system so found 
and ran a program to search for large files. Top of the list were two
LMS files, cache.db & imgproxy.db, both in the LMS Cache folder. At
first sight the program I ran seemed to have a bug, displaying each
large file in duplicate. On closer inspection, they were not duplicates
but complete copies of the Cache folder in...

C:\ProgramData\Squeezebox\Cache

and

C:\Users\All Users\Squeezebox\Cache

I guess this is so that all users and a specific user can have access to
LMS but it does mean that a lot of disc space is lost in duplication.
The reason I had lost 20Gbytes of disc space was that my LMS cache had
grown to nearly 21Gbytes for some reason. Easy to remedy by deleting
cache.db and carrying out a full rescan - after rescan cache.db stands
at 172Mbytes. But it did lead me to check for large files and so find
the duplicate Cache.

Is it possible or advisable/not advisable to delete the 'C:\Users\All
Users\Squeezebox' without any ill effects?

The duplicate for all users occupies nearly 3Gbytes of disc space which
is considerable on a small SSD.
