No! Don't do this now! (Installation path) #724

I know that I am not the only one so please don't install publii by yourself. Let me choose installation directory. I have seperated hard disks for windows, applications and games, I have everything in order and organized I don't know what's the point of automatically installing software on user's system instead of give them choice where to install it.

Have you tried setting the storage folder in the app ? https://getpublii.com/docs/publii-global-settings.html

I am talking about publii's installation path. When I click on installer, it's automatically installs Publii under AppData folder instead to give me choice to choose where I want to install the software.

Oh alright, I'm on Linux so we just run the executable directly without installation there. Please note that I'm just one of the users, not a maintainer.

I agree. can't proceed with installation. I have set my ransom-ware-shield to block third-party access to C:\Users\USER NAME\Documents\ folder. Publii is trying to access this folder.
