Hello,

is it possible to make C::B load default.conf from its installation directory, that is install_dir\AppData\codeblocks\default.conf instead of %appdata%\CodeBlocks\default.conf so I can make it portable in a USB flash drive.

TIA.

Did you try following the wiki directions?

I think that CBLauncher is now part of Code::Blocks; but, I forget how it is used.

Thank you, that helped.
I had to edit C::B desktop shortcut to make it point to "CbLauncher.exe" instead of "codeblocks.exe".
