Problem to be solved
I'm trying to make a scoop package for StrongDMM. At this moment, StrongDMM (alpha) stores all configuration data in AppData only. This makes impossible using .exe and config in a single folder as self-contained.
Sugest a solution
Add a dummy file (Portable
for example) or folder priority check in the same folder where executable is located. If one of them exist there, it will ignore config in AppData and create or read config files from program root dir only.
Maybe with such structure:
StrongDMM (root dir)
./config
./logs
./layout.ini
./StrongDMM.exe
Alternatively, using data
folder:
StrongDMM (root dir)
./data/
./config
./logs
./layout.ini
./StrongDMM.exe
