I use 3 different installations of Ember on my PC, one for my movie database, one to test the new releases and one for the neighbors server. If a installtion use automatically the settings of another that would be a disaster.
I second that opinion!
In my case I have also multiple installations of Ember working on one machine. They reside in different folders and thats perfect because this way I can configure them differently for different parts of my movie collection. For example I have dedicated Ember installations to scrape in english or in german. So if a new movie is of interest for me AND my girlfried I scrape its info in german. If its a movie like Inglorious Bastards which she will never watch, then I scrape it with the other ember installation in english.
This is great and I hope will continue to work.
Meaning: Please, keep the ember installations local and don't spread it across the whole system...
Programms like Total Commander or notepad++ offer the option to select the configuration-save-location on installation. But as ember is a simple ZIP without installer it should always be the default to save the configuration in the programm directory, mayby changeble in the settings dialog for people who want to embrace the "windows-way" of storing stuff to places where it will never be found again...
