Hello,
I currently have an issue I've noticed when I boot up my HTPC and have windows autostart XBMC vs. launch XBMC in Windows just like any other program.
I recently downloaded the Aeon skin and set it as my default skin.
When I have windows autoload XBMC on bootup, I've noticed that my skin is still set to the older one I was using (Mediastream). After I quit XBMC and then re-open it, it appears like I would expect after having changed the settings with Aeon.
Since then I've noticed that there are two guisettings.xml files:
C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\XBMC\userdata
C:\Program Files\XBMC\userdata
Both are different for some reason, which explains why the settings were changing. Should I have two userdata folders? Why does XBMC choose a different location for the settings depending on how it's launched?
Thanks!
