2010-12-29 02:31:00 William Good description build/depends.py hard-codes our settings path to "Local Settings/Application Data/Mixxx/" for Windows, and presumably %USERPROFILE% gets appended to it somewhere. This is correct for Windows versions pre-7, but this path has moved to %LOCALAPPDATA% (aka %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local) for Windows 7 (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd378457(VS.85).aspx and search FOLDERID_LocalAppData). I guess the solution is to use %LOCALAPPDATA% if it's populated and use what we use now otherwise. This is a bug because mixxx ends up creating a %USERPROFILE%/local settings/... folder for win7 users that's likely unhidden (and therefore clutters up the user's home directory) and isn't obviously necessary to back-up when everything else stores its stuff in the proper paths. build/depends.py hard-codes our settings path to "Local Settings/Application Data/Mixxx/" for Windows, and presumably %USERPROFILE% gets appended to it somewhere.

Oh -- in case it wasn't obvious, the solution to this is a bit easier said than done, a proper solution will copy everything from the old (wrong) directory and then (possibly) wipe it. We don't really want to move where (most importantly) the library is without some sort of remedy.
