Question Easy way to clear compiled shaders for player build?

I'm trying to debug a shader compile hitch in my game. I'm prewarming all my shaders, so there must be some rogue shader(s) that I missed during the prewarm phase.

Is there a simple way to clear the compiled shaders for a player build? One which doesn't involve running the build on a new PC, reinstalling graphics drivers, etc.?

I'm going to use "Log Shader Compilation" after to catch the shader that causes the hitch--in theory. I haven't actually used it before; looks like it's a solution though.

 

Windows 10 - DirectX 11 and 12.

I was deleting the shader cache in the project folder in order to reproduce the problem in the editor; it could be time-consuming compiling every shader again though.

I managed to figure out what was causing the hitch: post-processing shaders. I have an exorbitant amount of custom post effects.

My fix is to activate the player camera a little bit before the load screen is removed. Everything is smooth as silk now.
