#### What is the problem you are having with rclone?

After updating to version 1.55 I noticed that the name of the folder where the cache is saved is with more characters than the correct one, for example:  
What would {YRXYK} be after the name of my drivers?

This is to disambiguate drives with different command line parameters.

I'm guessing you are passing a `--drive-XXX` flag on the command line. This means that the drive that gets created might be different to the one that gets created without the flag (eg if you passing in `--drive-root-folder-id`) so rclone uses a different cache directory.

If that flag (or flags) is something you always want to use, then put it in the config file and that suffix will go away.

This is a new feature, but it essentially fixes a bug which would mean rclone mixed up different drive remotes which would be bad.
