Update protocol changed

Post by savvy » Wed Jan 05, 2011 11:54 am

My server is partitioned such that my program files and data are on completely separate hard drives from the OS, Drive D & E.
In the past, when updating OD one could change the location of the upgrade.
Now it is unchangeable and defaults to Drive C.
This has created multiple OD applications.
Please change the current update protocol to allow for change.

Thank you.

We did rewrite the installer a few versions ago, but it was specifically to allow changing the path. And if already installed, it is now supposed to default to the original install location. So my first impulse is to say that it might be time to uninstall OD (the OD program only, nothing else!), and then install again. This should take less than 5 minutes. But we should also test it again.
