"Could not save config file..." Error

<< < (5/5)

sodev:
I have never used CB Launcher but isn't that the thing you use when you want a portable CodeBlocks? Because then it would make totally sense to not use system directories but the installation directory to store settings.

I always use CodeBlocks.exe and never had any of these issues.

oBFusCATed:
@SaturdayScience: Yes, this is not the correct location of the appdata. When not using the cblauncher it is somewhere in your user folder. But probably the launcher messes things up or it has some configuration options. I've never used it so I cannot comment what is going on.

But if sodev is correct then you should copy codeblocks.exe and all the other stuff in a writable folder and use it from there.

SaturdayScience:
Hi sodev and oBFusCATed
the explanation makes sense. Being new to C::B and Win 10 providing both 'buttons' from a standard installation I wrongly assumed launch behaved in similar fashion to e. LibreOffice general button.
As you correctly suggested simply using C::B button works flawlessly.
Thank you for your kind assistance.
