Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I rely on Scoop for software management but I'm running into an issue. When I update BlenderLauncher and clean up old versions with scoop cleanup *, it also removes the downloaded Blender. I'm looking for a way to keep Blender while removing old versions.

Describe the solution you'd like
To prevent Blender from being deleted during the scoop cleanup * process, I propose placing the downloaded Blender in Scoop's persist folder or another persistent storage location.

Oh i didn't even know we were on Scoop! I see @shiena performed that (https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Extras/commits/master/bucket/blender-launcher.json), Unsure how the Scoop system works, we might need them to do that

The easiest way is to save blender in a folder outside of scoop management.
I have set C:\Users\myname\.local\bin\blender folder as Library Folder.
