Please Don't Change Installation Folder Across Versions!

Post by dfrailey »

It is rather disruptive to install an upgrade (e.g. from TextPad 6 to TextPad 7) and then have to correct all the paths where I reference my external editor of choice (e.g. in WinSCP).

Changing the installation folder name also causes problems when custom syntax files aren't copied from the old TextPad installation folder to the new TextPad installation folder.

Once the installation folder is selected (e.g. "C:\Program Files\TextPad") - please LEAVE IT ALONE across version updates!

Thanks,
