Masterlist won't update if user temp folder changed #53

Closed damnsalvation closed 8 years ago

damnsalvation commented 8 years ago

I had the user environment TEMP and TMP variables set to G:\UserTemp\Local\Temp Opened loot to order skyrim, which I had just reinstalled. Tried to update masterlist, got a filesystem access error. Forget the exact error, but it was a 'could not modify' listing directories: C:\Users...\LOOT\skyrim G:\UserTemp\Local\Temp{random}

procmon showed LOOT.exe tried to open G:\UserTemp\Local\Temp{random}, and was denied because it didn't exist

From Log: [0409/171435:ERROR:main_delegate.cc(738)] Could not load cef_extensions.pak

Since it looked like look was trying to use a generated temp folder, but without actually creating it first, I changed my TEMP and TMP variables back to the defaults. It worked. Masterlist updated just fine. Then I realized I should report the bug so I thought I'd change the variables back to get the exact error that popped up. But it didn't. Not sure why, maybe because it didn't need to update again. It's a pretty rare set of circumstances, so not exactly a high priority.
