Having issues opening the DemoExpress Project? Try clearing the cache

Sometimes, after installing Popul8 Express and importing the DemoExpress.pp8 project, the imported project might not launch properly after double-clicking, or certain features may not behave as expected.

In such cases, clearing the project cache usually resolves the issue.

Steps to clear the cache:

1. Close the Popul8 application
2. Navigate to the project directory and locate the Cache folder. The demo project cache you will find here:<place-where-you-extracted-file>/didimo-assets-XX/Popul8AppData/<random-numbers>/Cache
3. Delete all files and folders inside the Cache folder
   (Do not delete any other folders or files)
4. Reopen Popul8 application
5. Open the DemoExpress project again

Please note:

Clearing the cache will trigger a rebuild of the assets, which may take some time on the next launch, but you do not need to re-import the project.
