# Cache sharing between multiple Edge sessions

The Edge cache is controlled by a few settings. This is a limitation of the EdgeView2 control, which requires a unique folder as opposed to defined settings. Trying to share caches with conflicting settings will prevent the EdgeView2 control from loading, thus leading to a blank screen.

Here are the settings that affect sharing a cache between multiple Website sessions using Microsoft Edge:

### In Remote Desktop Manager settings

1. ***Language code*** (in entry ***Properties*** – ***General*** – ***Advanced***).

2. ***SmartScreen*** (in entry ***Properties*** – ***General*** – ***Settings***).

3. Enable ***Single Sign-On with Windows accounts*** (***File*** – ***Settings*** – ***Entry types*** – ***Sessions*** – ***Website***).

These settings need to be appended to the Microsoft Edge’s cache folder path. Here are some examples:

* `C:\Users{user}\AppData\Local\Devolutions\RemoteDesktopManager\WebView2.Cache\de\EBWebView`
* `C:\Users{user}\AppData\Local\Devolutions\RemoteDesktopManager\WebView2.Cache\SingleSignOn\EBWebView`
* `C:\Users{user}\AppData\Local\Devolutions\RemoteDesktopManager\WebView2.Cache\de\DisableSmartScreen\SingleSignOn\EBWebView`

### Profile

A profile then needs to be specified using the Edgeview2 control, which allows for various cache matching configurations.

1. ***Private mode***: This mode has its own private profile consisting of a profile name – if it exists – and the entry’s ID.
2. ***Profile name***: This profile allows sharing with all other sessions that match the three settings previously defined in Remote Desktop Manager and the profile name.
3. ***No profile name***: This profile allows sharing with all other sessions that match the three settings previously defined in Remote Desktop Manager without a profile name (it reverts to a hard-coded folder name).

### Clear cache on startup

With all this configured, the setting ***Clear cache on startup*** can be enabled. From then on, the cache will be cleared when first launching a session, and any subsequent sessions will not have theirs cleared until all are closed and a new one is launched.
