I would like to request the option in the Global Settings to "Keep the Cache Folder after the Video got rendered" and stop it from being auto deleted.

Hello,
i want to know if it would be possible to add the option to the Global Settings which would allow me to keep the "Cache Folder" and stop it from being auto deleted after the Video got rendered, i am specifically asking for this since i follow at least two Streamers on Twitch who get segments of their VODs muted (regularly) sometimes and the only option for me to keep a copy of their VODs fully uncensored is by downloading their Livestreams while they are still in progress (I use these files later on to replace the muted Segments from the VOD when its fully available), but its making this Task sometimes harder since the Cache Folder gets auto deleted after it rendered the Video unless i was quick enough to put the Folder into read-only mode.

To shorten what i am asking for:
I want an option in the Global Settings that allows me to keep the Cache Folder after the Video got rendered.
Would that be possible to integrate?
Cheers

I know that I keep putting it off, but I think the next time I have an abundance of free time for TD I will try to look into this. I like the idea of it being a global setting too, I hadn't thought of that.

I also need to look into implementing #544, which is a much bigger task but still doable. It will require serializing download details to a file in the cache folder.

Perhaps a pause can be inserted between the second and third steps to allow users to complete their tasks before executing the remaining steps.
Alternatively, add a pause button to allow pausing the current task at any time.
