Hi @jgresiak ! Thanks for filing this. I'm not super familiar with the Windows ecosystem so I'm not sure what is normal there, but I would personally find it to be unexpected so I think this is likely a bug.
Hey @jszwedko It's not really tied to Windows environment, just something I usually see with installers that leave existing data in place rather overwriting them. I don't know how the GNU/Linux installer does it, though.
A note for the community
Problem
Hello there,
During an update of the Windows client using the MSI (0.39.0), I realized that the installer had overwritten the existing config/vector.yaml.
My usual expectation during this update process is that any existing file is either left in peace (or way less commonly renamed) to avoid potential data loss of existing config.
Is this a bug or a feature?
Cheers <3
