[Question] Can I use portable zip version to update instead of installer? #149

Closed cozykitten closed 1 year ago

Can I just overwrite Dorion.exe, Updater.exe, injection/ and icons/ with the ones from the portable zip when a new version gets released or do I have to run the installer that prompts me to uninstall and reinstall every time?

Why is that a problem? It's not like you lose your settings when you update Dorion using the installer

Yes you can just overwrite the files if you’d prefer. The only thing Dorion uses to tell if its portable or not is whether “config.json” is in the same dir as the exe, so it won’t do anything funky.
