Huawei P9, Phone Manager issue.

Alright, first what phone manager does. It clears all unwanted cache junk created by application I use. Okay no doubt about that.

However, there's 1 thing that really frustrates me. I've been using an application, or a game precisely, the game belongs to an Online Japanese game, which every time if there's an update, it downloads, and save as cache.

There it comes, these files that the game automatically downloaded, are always being treated as junk cache. Every time I run system optimization, it clears off everything in that /android/data/"particular game folder". Which then happens to be every time i wanted to run the game, i will have to download the external data, OVER and OVER and OVER again, sometimes using my mobile data.

I've tried something like adding the game into whitelist, or allow it to run in background, but everytime my cellphone turns it screen off,
poof, the auto cleanup deletes everything again and Again and AGAIN.

Is there any possible to at least keep the auto cleanup running and NOT cleaning my needed cache at the same time? Yeah it sounds funny when i mention "needed cache" but i really need them, fyi they are more than 2 GB in total, so i really don't favor to download them over and over again.

Thank you for reading, and I really do hope if there's any approach to the solution <3
ps: English is not my native language, sorry if there's some weird grammar mixed in it...
the game name is Battle Girl High School.
