Fix being unable to install Northstar with EA App #117

Closed GeckoEidechse closed 1 year ago

GeckoEidechse commented 1 year ago

EA App is located in Program Files and installs games there by default, which causes issues with being unable to install Northstar due to lack of perms, c.f.: https://github.com/R2Northstar/Northstar/issues/368

GeckoEidechse commented 1 year ago

Being unable to run Northstar can be solved by simply changing cwd to Titanfall2 dir before launching Northstar. Maybe the same "trick" can be applied to allow installing Northstar as well without raising perms.

211 adds a dialog window which tells users to move their game somewhere else if it's located in Program Files.
