    Is there a way to easily clear the cache of the desktop clients (Windows/Mac)?

    As stated above, I'd love to know if there is an easy way to have the cache be cleared on desktop clients.

    I edit quite a few things on my JF server (design and different buttons, other logo and favicon etc) but it sometimes seems to make the window go blank when desktop clients are loaded into my JF server. I fixed it on my own PC by clearing the cache in "C:\Users\MyUsername\AppData\Local\Jellyfin Media Player\cache\QtWebEngine\Default\Cache" on windows. But then my friend started experiencing the same, and I had to remotely fix it for him the same way I did it since nobody is that tech savvy in my area. 

    Now I'm a bit f-ed, because another friend on a Macbook now gets a grey screen, forcing her to use the browser to watch my content, which in turn makes the server transcode Slightly-frowning-face And I have no clue where the cache is on macOS or how to even access it. It would be nice if I could introduce some kind of auto cache clearing task, or even better, figure out why they get a blank screen when accessing my server after I edit the web contents.

    Any tips/ideas how to resolve this? And does anyone know where the cache is located on macOS?
