How to put settings into (subfolder) of WebChangeMonitor installation directory?

[pxstein]

I downloaded and started WebChangeMontior on a Windows 10 system.
It works.

Unfortunately it writes all settings to directory

C:\Users\pet\AppData\Local\WebChangeMonitor\

How can I tell WebChangeMonitor to write all settings into the same (or a sub folder) directory as WebChangeMonitor.exe?

Can this at least be added as an checkbox-option to next WebChangeMonitor?

Thank you

do you use WebChangeMonitor_24_08.zip or WebChangeMonitor-24.08-setup.exe ?

You can use the command line interface to do that. Run WCM with /? to see all available options.
This ist also described in the sub-forum "Useful Tips&Tricks".

Btw: If the folder ist writable, then placing the INI file and config file into the folder where the executable ist, makes it portable.

But empty %localappdata%\WebChangeMonitor is still created at each startup (win7, noopt).
