Description

Current Behavior

Scenario: Linux workstation with with multiple users logging in and using it.

AYON launcher will download stuff on launch to /tmp/ayon_dist_downloads. First user that runs AYON will have it created with his ownership and permission. Any other user trying to launch AYON will hit permission error because the folder already exists but he doesn't have permissions to write there and so AYON won't work for him.

Expected Behavior

Process should be more isolated so multiple users on the same machine are not affected.

Steps To Reproduce:

On multiuser linux machine log in as user A and run AYON. Let it download and initialize stuff. Logout and login as user B. Run AYON - it will most likely crash during startup because of permission error.

Additional context:

Version

ayon-launcher 1.4.2
