Post From: New/Open Custom Studies File Doesn't Respect Location of notepad++

Revised repro:
1. Install Sierra Chart into the default target path (i.e. c:\Program Data\...)
2. Cut and paste the entire installation into a new root folder: c:\Sierra Chart\
3. Start the application and verify that General Setting => Paths have automatically adapted to the new folder, as you intend.
4. Open Analysis => New/Open Custom Studies File
5. Attempt new file name

You must be writing the original absolute path c:\Program Data\... to configuration and not updating it in your folder-self-discovery process. Unfortunately, because your configuration file is not human readable, I cannot help you with that. Incidentally, this issue is low priority for me personally, because I use VS 2022 for C++. It is primarily relevant to the "portability" of an installation.
