Portable version - Changing file location (Expected Behaviour?)

Hi @arkeon.   Is the following expected behaviour or am i missing something?

Portable version 1.91 Beta 4

Change the folder directory to a fixed path say f:\openspace so its a students home directory
User save to this folder but the files aren't actually saved here they appear in the locked partition folder on Drive C

If a student creates a folder in the f:\openspace folder this is created locally ands then replicated in the locked partition.

It looks like students are saving to their home drives but are actually saving to the locked partition.  Is this how its supposed to work?

It causes an issue when students move computers (they don't always have the same machine in the same room) or if a computers local drive is wiped. 

Should the files not actually save in the location set in the config?

Thanks
Damian

Hello, this was in fact a bug in the beta version. You can download and use the 1.91 release from https://www.openspace3d.com/download

The user partition also need a priority index that was missing and corrected.
So the normal behavior is to save project files and modified source into the user folder only.

Ah that's ace - I was just going to post that testing at home seemed to work on the final version.  I'll get them to replace it on the machines tomorrow.

Thank you for confirmation
