XYplorer Beta Club

Hi

I like the idea of the cached search results. but I use xyplorer in a portable installation.

An option to set the search cache directory would be good.

for instance if I could set the cache directory to %TEMP%\xyplorer, then all computer's where I used xyplorer would have their own cached search results.

probably ott.

You can set the whole Application Data Path which also contains the cache data. See Help under "Application Data Path", paragraph "Setting the Application Data Path (ADP)".

I never used this kind of setup for a longer time, but it should work: you can set the ADP to %temp% like this in startup.ini:

Except there is one major difference in moving the appdata to the temp folder of the running PC : you also send to that computer (and in a tmp folder at that) all your settings, KS, Catalog, etc !!

True.

When working from a USB stick on different computers, you could have different app data paths on your stick for each computer:

startup.ini or, better, via command line
