Cant clear settings #10

If drive letters are changed there is no obvious way to "refresh" the app and start new. Uninstalling doesnt work.

Ehhm, i don't quite follow, clear what settings?

d0x360 commented 9 years ago

All of them. For example I changed my drive E to D. Ita still showing everything as drive E. There should be a way to empty the game list.

Where does the app store its settings, I'll do it that way. On Oct 9, 2015 3:38 PM, "zlepper" notifications@github.com wrote:

Ohh, it's stored in %appdata%\local I recall. Also I haven't really considered people changing the drive letter without deleting reseting the entire computer.

The upgrade to windows 10 can do it. So can doing system restores for some reason. On Oct 9, 2015 3:50 PM, "zlepper" notifications@github.com wrote:

Right well, I have no good way of detecting it happening, so not much I can do without checking for all the directories' status on startup. Also wouldn't the path get messed up when drive letters change anyway?

But I can look it doing something about it next month. Im all hung up this month.

You could just add a reset all button. As for windows pathing there are some things you need to edit but it takes about 5 min and the OS does the rest for you. On Oct 9, 2015 3:55 PM, "zlepper" notifications@github.com wrote:
