Description
If machine is part of Windows domain then folder AppData/Roaming is stored on file server and copied every time user log on. Storing big amount of data causes login delay, unnecessary LAN use, etc. /Roaming is for application setting. Big, temporary data should be stored in AppData/Local. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roaming_user_profile#Third-party_companies_don.27t_use_it_correctly

The setting cache.folder in the advanced prefs sets the cache directory.
At the moment we keep all JOSM related files in a single directory by default. This makes it easier to reset everything easily if there is corruption in the preference or cache.
There are also advantages of splitting into settings and cache folder, so this may change at some time.

for help on using tickets.
The best would have a setting one can change a fixed location of josm cache, if small SSD, no admin rights etc.
