That's no proof! Those are the data from the files on your harddrive.
But you can't tell which version is loaded in memory. If only *one*
single app has for example the dll still loaded, then *that* version
is used, even though there's a newer one on the harddrive.

That has nothing to do with the cache!!!!
If you modifiy something in App1->SHARED, then those modifications are
available to the others (app2, app3) only after you commit
App1->SHARED and update App2 and App3.

Please read the docs. And I strongly recommend you also read the
Subversion book, especially the part about externals. You seem to have
completely misunderstood how those work.

Did you move it in explorer, or did you use the right-drag context
menu TSVN offers you? If the first, the error message is expected.
