Hello !

By default VA saves configurations and caches in two directories:

C:\\Documents and Settings\\User\\Local Settings\\Application Data\\VisualAssist\C:\\Documents and Settings\\User\\Application Data\\VisualAssist\
It's not good for security reasons, because in first direcory saved cached files from projects
How about to make configuration for VA data folders in Options menu, to make possibility redirect it to more secure place, flash-card for example ?

We are considering adding an option to set these directories:

case=6795

For now you may be able to achieve the same effect using this utility:

I have never actually tried this myself, but on paper this should work.
