Cache is for fontconfig. It should make font handling much faster, but since fontconfig is somewhat buggy under Win32, it can cause issues. Specially for those users who have installed many additional fonts or change their fonts often (or store their %appdata% to network).
can you store it somewhere Ccleaner can't find it ?
Like where? %appdata%\vlc is about the only place that works in most Windows setups.
