Editing default filepath in preferences.json not showing #7

I edited the preferences.json's default filepath but when I restart the app the old filepath is rewritten into the json

Team's Response

This is a flaw inherited from AB3. Tester edited preferences.json when Weme was still open, so the changes were not recognized by Weme. If the tester edited the preferences.json when Weme was closed, this would not happen. The save location for Weme is as shown as the preferences tab, which would be the path before editing.

Downgraded to featureflaw as it works perfectly on normal usage. Downgraded to low as expected normal user should only edit the preferences.json when app is not in use.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: If you knew about this bug, you should have at least put it in your user guide so there's at least a docbug. Why should the "expected normal user only edit the preferences.json when app is not in use"? Isn't it normal for users to edit the configurations of their applications during use? Otherwise I would have to close the app, make some changes and reopen the app? That's not what most users would expect as normal.
