Creating Multiple Configuration Files

Previously, if you wanted to open the software with different configurations simultaneously, the only way was to duplicate the entire software, which wasted a lot of space.

Recently, this has been optimized. The software can now read configuration files from a specified directory, allowing you to use different configurations simply by specifying the configuration directory at runtime.

Here’s how:

  1. Create a shortcut for the main program.

  2. Modify the shortcut’s Properties -> Target by adding --userconfig=XXXX at the end, where XXXX is the name of the folder you want to use as the new configuration. Then, launch the software using this shortcut.

    If XXXX is a non-existent folder, the software will start with default settings and create this folder.

    If XXXX is an existing folder, the software will launch using the configuration files in that folder. You can copy the old userconfig folder and specify XXXX as the name of the copied folder, allowing you to fork a new configuration from the previous one.
