Bug on Windows takes so much spaces

[fitrarhm]

I just install fnm on windows computer via Choco and install 2 node versions, but i do realize that it's takes so much spaces for up to 6 GB in total at C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\fnm_multishells. Unfortunately i just uninstalled fnm, so maybe i don't have any log to share with.

how did you check this?
we use junctions on windows which are like symlinks, so maybe your testing method was wrong and you summed the same node version multiple times

I'm running on Mac, but I have 32 versions installed locally and it is 3.1GB total

with 9820 multishells that are 0B on disk

@Schniz any idea why 84 junctions in my case? I have 5 versions installed. What exactly are multishells? (I may be sounding very dumb here, I do realize)

And where do the base files get stored? They are very useful when we're linking specific versions in a project configuration for Intellij IDEs.

Nevermind, found answers to both questions :)
