Request for Assistance with Game Cache File Location

I've just started playing the new League today, and have experienced various game crashes.

Specifically, I found that the shader caches and other related cache files are being generated in the root of my Documents folder. I figured that these files should be in the %appdata%/Path of Exile directory, but currently the only in that directory is an engine.version file.

I want to figure out:

A. Why these cache files are being redirected to an incorrect directory.
B. How I can rectify this issue to ensure that the cache files are stored in the appropriate location moving forward.

Any guidance or information that could be provided would be greatly appreciated.

TIA
