change the cache dir of netbeans 8.0.2

if you are looking for changing the default cache location of your netbeans 8.0.2 (this is the version i have, this might work for other versions as well) follow the below steps:
1. Make sure netbean is closed
2. Locate the netbeans.conf file (mostly it will be there @C:\Program Files (x86)\NetBeans 8.0.2\etc)
3. Open the notepad as admin (Notepad++ was giving some weird error, dono what)
4. change the location under the property : netbeans_default_cachedir  from "${DEFAULT_CHACHEDIR_ROOT}/8.0.2" to something like "D:/software/netbeanse/cache/8.0.2".

Hope this helped you, please leave your comment if it did. Thank you!
