liesauer commented 4 years ago

if i lost my settings when moving to another pc or just put it into my usb stick, it's not portable at all!

liesauer commented 4 years ago

now it stores into %AppData%\Captura.

For reference: #376

Ideally, fully portable tools write to the local app folder (usually to a subfolder like \data or similar) and nowhere else.

As you may see from #376, starting from the next release, Settings will be stored in the local app folder by default for portable builds. Also, FFmpeg will be downloaded into the app folder too.

Downloaded the portable version, run the software: Settings are saved here: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Captura

Read all the bug reports, created a "Settings" folder still settings files are created in appdata.

How to make this software truly portable? Nothing should be written outside of "Captura-Portable" folder. Thanks
