Configure browser binaries globally on windows #659

Open yacine-bens opened 4 months ago

Describe the bug

The web-ext.config.ts in the project directory is working just fine. I'm trying to use it globally as mentioned in the docs by putting it in ~/web-ext.config.ts , but for windows I believe the path is C:\Users\<username>\. I tried changing the file name to .web-ext-config.js as in here but with not luck.

To Reproduce

  1. Start dev mode: npm run dev

Expected behavior

Launch browser binaries specified in C:\Users\<username>|web-ext.config.ts

I looked into this, and I think this is a problem with c12. It's not discovering the config file in the home directory correctly.
