Profile folder file storage #1

Closed Wolverine1977 closed 1 year ago

Wolverine1977 commented 3 years ago

Hi, I've been using the Alpha version since it was released and I've had no bug issues with it so far. The only feedback I have is that I don't like the profile folder dependency. I much preferred that all the files needed to preserve the groups were stored in the root folder that the executable was stored in. Can this be an option to have one or the other.

My system had to be reinstalled over the weekend and I lost all the group settings that were stored on the c:, my Taskbar executable is stored on a separate data drive and had all the dependent files been in the same location I would not have had to recreate the groups.

Can you please consider this feature as an option? I love all the other improvements and the single executable. The tool tip works great, editing the display name is flawless and very well implemented.

Thanks for reading

Sure, I will throw that on the list of implementations I will be working on. That does make sense and I can see how people would not want it to be stored in AppData.

After #2 is completed, add a way to also move where the background exe will be placed for better portability.

Closing, portability mode was implemented.
