Config ignored on Windows 11 #549

Closed maddo7 closed 5 months ago

maddo7 commented 5 months ago

I copied the configs and shaders to C:\Users\"username".config\cava but it seems this is ignored. I always just get the white bars.

Running as admin does not help but it seems to put symbols on top of the bars.

What would be the best way to address this and find a solution? Any help is greatly appreciated.

hmm on windows you can specify the config path by adding it as a argument when running cava like this:

cava.exe C:\Users\"username"\.config\cava

does it work then?

also did you remember to remove the semicolon before the config option that you like to change?

Thank you very much for your quick reply.

Today when I tested it again, it worked. I think yesterday I accidentally modified the wrong file.
