SD v3.2.0 auto update to different drive

The new "auto update" for v.3.2.0 is welcome, but (on a PC) it forces installation to Drive C: which is a pain as I have my previous installations on another drive.

Do I now have to migrate SD to C: or is there an option somewhere to install to the existing folder or a drive of choice?

The Windows convention is to offer installation to a default location, which can be accepted, or changed, which is what I would expect from SD.



Exactly. The suggestion I made, namely that the new installer ought to install the update to the location the old version sits at, was already a compromise.

Actually, I don't understand why the majority of programs does it right (just as you describe) and what works all of them doesn't work for SD. Almost as if SD users were a particularly computer illiterate bunch ....
