Description
On windows this action doesn't work under all circumstances.
One such instance is the following github action(run): https://github.com/duckdb-faiss-ext/duckdb-faiss-ext/actions/runs/11274103433/job/31494248160
The environment is windows 2019, with rtools42 and using ccache as a C compiler.

Research direction
Start by examining the linked GitHub Actions run for Windows 2019 with rtools42 and ccache, including its cache-related logs. Compare the action's behavior in that environment with a working environment and identify the missing reproduction details. Done means the cache works reliably for the reported setup and the behavior is covered by an appropriate regression check.
