����Program���� folder is the default location where to install apps on Windows.If a user does not have admin rights, he can simply install it under its home directory.Also there is the��UAC Virtualization fiasco that complicates installing upgrades.Could we *please* install Windows PharoLauncher into user folders?Users can choose to install Pharo Launcher where they wish.We could choose another default location but not sure it is best option.
Nope, I don���t have any option of changing Pharo launcher installation. I double click the exe and receive a message telling me I need administrative rights. Can this be changed? It���s a deal breaker for those using Windows.
��why a step backwards?Pharo images are not *data* in the sense is intended for��XDG_DATA_HOME.��In practice, an image is more like a document Pharo can read�����data files are configurations, etc. an app needs to work properly in the local environment.��Pharo images instead, are modifiable/editable/whatever euphemism you want�����that���s why we considered more like VMWare considers their Virtual Machines, then they belong to some place in the home directory that is of easy access.I guess I hate when applications are throwing their garbage into my $HOME (this also goes for VirtualBox, Eclipse, and everyone else).If I am not accessing the files directly, but they are pretty much always managed by some other applications, then for me they are polluting $HOME. (And yes, I sometimes do launch to image by hand, or manipulate VirtualBox by hand, but that doesn't change the fact that it is not the primary way to work with it.)But no worries, I rest my case and I patch it for myself. (So no need to add configuration for this either.)Peter
