Where to extact / How to save settings? #74

Closed jonaskello closed 6 years ago

jonaskello commented 6 years ago

I extracted wsl-terminal in "C:\Program Files\wsl-terminal". I double-clicked on open-wsl.exe. Next I went to options and set the theme and pressed save. Then I got this error message:

My question is how do I save the settings? I guess wsl-terminal is trying to save somehow relative to the dir it started from. So do I have to extract wsl-terminal in / of the wsl filesystem to make it work or is there some other way?
