installation:start

Installation

This option in installer controls location of your User Data directory.

All settings, syntax files, workspaces etc can be installed (and later loaded) from three different locations:

  • Current User Application Data,
  • All Users Application Data and
  • Application folder (old style, so-called Portable mode).

Default for new users is Current Application Data.

For existing users old location (for most it portable mode). Once selected, the mode cannot be changed. To install to a new location, you need to do full uninstall first.

If checked, add a path to hippoedit.exe to PATH environment variable, so you can call it from command line from everywhere later.

On Uninstall, PATH state is restored and HippoEDIT directory is removed.
