Cannot clear gi cache after opening a new project
Continuous baking is the default lightmapping mode. Opening a new project, even with no geometry present in the scene, it seems to be the case that lightmapping is considered "in progress". Therefore you cannot clear the gi cache. The error, "Cache settings can't be changed while lightmapping is being computed," is thrown.
This might be confusing.

1. Go to the above menu bar Window->Lightning->Setting.
2. When you see the bottom of the setting page, you will find the TICK MARK Option (Auto Generate).
3. Untick this mark.
The problem is resolved and you can also change the setting of GI Cache.

Fixed in "Future release"!?!? Which release exactly?
I'm on 5.1.1f1, and it's not fixed. I just had this occur in a nearly empty GI test scene... If others are still seeing this, then perhaps this needs to be re-opened

You can uncheck 'continuous baking' in Window/Lighting/ tab Scene. And then clear the cache.

using this as a ref: http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/EditorPrefs.html
I reset the gi cache registry for custom path to 0 and then when I re-loaded Unity it prompted me and I could reset to factory settings.

Found in 5.0.1 It was not present in 5.0.0f4 (Win7x64). Reverting back to 5.0.0f4 hoping to not see that error again...

I've un-installed, torn out everything Unity related and reinstalled and the problem is still there.
The moment Unity opens it's stuck in a "10/15 Bake Runtime | 1 jobs" loop that pumps out errors such as:
'Bake Runtime' job failed with error code: 4294967295 ('Unknown error.').
Failed executing external process for 'Bake Runtime' job. Exit code: '0'.
Reverting to prior version for now. I can't believe I managed to break a program within 5 minutes of opening it. Don't release if it's not ready.

First time I've used Unity 5 and it throws this error. It's locked down, nothing can be done to halt it.
