    This is not useful for the default Providers used with Addressables. It can only come into affect if you use custom providers.

    We well be changing the docs to say:
    Force Unique Provider: Whether Addressables uses unique instances of Resource Provider classes for this group. Enable this option if you have custom Provider implementations for the asset types in this group and instances of those Providers must not be shared between groups.

    The use case is very edge case, where you have custom providers, and said provider need to be instanced to work correctly.

    @andymilsom how so using signed urls with addressables is an edge case...
    I have been trying to implement caching for this case for months. still no luck.

    I think you may have this thread mixed up with another?
