Windows OS version
Windows 11 25H2 (Build 26200.8254)
ImageGlass version
10.0.2.66-beta-2-win-x64
ImageGlass release
Classic
1️⃣ Steps to reproduce
- Installed Image Glass 10 Beta 2 via the
.msix on the site. (https://imageglass.org/release/download/imageglass-10-beta-2-182)
- Opened an image by double clicking in file explorer. Image opened fine.
- Because I also had Image Glass 9.5 non-beta installed, it asked which app to use to open, and gave options for both image glass and image glass 10, i selected image glass 10
- I clicked the top right menu > Settings. Then got an error from Notepad++
2️⃣ Actual behavior
The file doesn't exist yet, so text editor apps told to open the settings file location might get an error. In this case Notepad++.
3️⃣ Expected behavior
A default settings file of some kind might be created prior to trying to open it. Or at least the folder path.
4️⃣ Screenshots / Video / Sample image file
5️⃣ Additional context
This might only be a problem with the beta where the %LOCALAPPDATA% path is different from the regular settings path from the non-beta (just called ImageGlass instead of ImageGlass_10).
I don't recall ever having this issue in the regular version, so I assume maybe the regular app version has a hard coded value to check and create the folder that the beta folder doesn't.
If I manually create the ImageGlass_10 folder, it doesn't cause the error because Notepad++ then just asks if you want to create the file, but of course it's empty. So not sure if the beta is supposed to create the default files, but is checking in the wrong folder (the non beta one).
Edit: I also noticed if I copy over the settings file from the non beta to beta folder, it doesn't seem to apply it in the beta. Not sure it's meant to.
