Describe the bug
In _user_data_dir.py
, the path created for win32
should be changed to AppData
, since the Application Data
shortcut is no longer supported by default under Windows 11. Hence, webviz
execution is going to fail on Windows 11.
Suggested change:
def user_data_dir() -> Path:
"""Returns platform specific path to store user application data"""
if sys.platform == "win32":
return Path.home() / "AppData" / "webviz"
if sys.platform == "darwin":
return Path.home() / "Library" / "Application Support" / "webviz"
return Path.home() / ".local" / "share" / "webviz"
