Want to change my cache location from C drive to my ramdisk.

in previous version it was:

1. about:config 2. browser.cache.disk.parent_directory 3. change path

but browser.cache.disk.parent_directory no longer exists in v.63.

Thanks for your help

You can still create this preference and it will be working.

Note that this pref has never existed by default on the about:config page, you always had to create a new String pref.
