Error: Directory coudn't be created

(1/2) > >>

Taldor:
At startup, an error message pops up:
"Code::Blocks v1.0 Error - Directory D:\Documents/.CodeBlocks" coudn't be created (error 3: the system can't find the given path.)"
The first time I ran Code::Blocks the directory D:\Documents didn't exist, but I created a link named like that to D:\ .
(I'm using the D:\ partition as 'my documents')
Now Code::Blocks keeps giving the same message at startup, even when I create a directory named .CodeBlocks under D:\ .

When asking for help, always give as much info as possible. For example, you haven't given us the most crucial piece of info: what C::B version are you using???

This is a very recurring thing.
There isn't any way we can tell users to always specify here or at sourceforge: Code::Blocks version, OS, wxWidgets version, Unicode/ANSI, Compiler version, Debugger version, Obtained from (svn/tgz source/win32 package/linux binary), Build from (autotools, project files) ?

Yes, but those apply to SVN issues only indeed. Troubleshooting is more general. ;)
