Not sure if there’s a way to programmatically clear the Java cache within Ignition.

If this is related to your original problem [here](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/view-windows-application-in-an-ignition-window/18344/10) then I’d recommend rendering the image bytes instead of changing the path.
