Errors loading database #30

Closed wilberolive closed 2 years ago

wilberolive commented 6 years ago

I was able to load a database once, but now I just get errors.

When I try and load a database using File->Open I get:

Failed to open database: Access to the path 'C\Program Files (x86)\LiteDbExplorer\recentfiles.txt' is denied.

When I try to load the same database using the recent files drop down list I get:

Unhandled exception occurred. Additional information written into: 'C\Program Files (x86)\LiteDbExplorer\explorer.log' Application will shutdown.

I check the path for explorer.log but it doesn't exist.

I think these settings and log files should be written to app data or something like that instead of program files.

Run application as admin or install it to other folder then Program Files. There's an issue if you install into directory that requires admin rights to write files.
