Changing from Portable to Installation version #1277

Problem Description

Hi!

I tried changing from the portable Beta to the installation version, but the setup does not ask for an installation path and all settings, the queue, etc. are lost! The settings file of the portable version "VidCoder.sqlite" can not be found in the installation folder, so it seems to store the settings differently and there is no way to import the old (actually current) settings. Very bad design...

How do I set the installation folder during setup and how do I preserve my current settings and queue of the portable version???

Thanks!

What version of VidCoder are you running?

It looks for VidCoder.sqlite in %appdata%\VidCoder-Beta. You can also go to Help -> Open App Data Folder.
