Autosave - let free to choose the directory. - Mapk - 08-02-2019
Hello to all the Dolphin team,
Thanks for you work! I use Dolphin since some years already and I really enjoy it.
What makes me write to you today is the fact that, after a windows reintallation, I've lost all my saved Dolphin games files.
As far as I understood, they are located in C Drive automatically (C:\User\NaMe\Document\Dolphin Emulator\...)
When we install Dolphin, there is no drive installation proposal; and I like my games beeing installed in a seperate drive than the system drive (crash/reinstallation protection)...
So, would it be possible, at the installation process or/and in Dolphin itself thanks to a selectable option/path setting, to be able to set the installation drive and directory?
Thanks in advance.
Mapk.

Use a development build, put a portable.txt next to dolphin.exe, put the folder wherever you want. Your user directory will be placed in the dolphin-emu folder.
Don't bother with stable.
