Description

I'm talking about the Folders in:

C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Keybase

**kbfs_block_cache** & simplefsdownload

![Keybase Locaj Storage Folders](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/13344308/168320243-c8ce2ede-1cc9-4126-9580-7cc8f2f2cd49.png)

There is someway to change it from the **Desktop APP** or i will need to do a **SymLink**? -.-

Research direction

The issue identifies the Windows folders C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Keybase\kbfs_block_cache and simplefsdownload and asks whether the Desktop app can change their location. No source files, tests, or entry points are named; investigate the Desktop app's storage-location configuration first. Done means establishing whether relocation is supported and documenting the applicable setting or limitation.
