Description

On the macOS version of GameMaker, the "My Projects" path setting was changed to point to a different location, however, upon launching GameMaker, the default projects folder /Users//GameMakerProjects is still being created.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. In GameMaker Settings... menu, under General Settings -> Paths, change the "My Projects" directory setting to point to a different location, such as /Users//Documents/GameMaker.
  2. Click OK to save change and dismiss window.
  3. Quit GameMaker.
  4. Delete the default project folder /Users//GameMakerProjects.
  5. Launch GameMaker.
  6. Observe how the default project folder gets recreated during launch.
  7. Return to the same settings window and note how the newly set folder is still there, which means the previous default project folder should not have been created upon relaunch.

Which version of GameMaker are you reporting this issue for?

IDE v2024.8.1.171 Runtime v2024.8.1.218
