pdfxcview config files location

Post by wondermore »

My pdfxcview has something wrong and I have to uninstall and reinstall it several times, but why my settings and configuration can keep unchanged?

Hello wondermore,

Some of the Viewer settings are stored in the registry, and some are in the Document and Settings\Application Data folders, and as they are relatively small (just a few KBs each) we have discovered it's more convenient to keep them there during reinstalls.

If you want to completely clean your system between those however, you can use some Registry cleaning tools if you like.

Best,
Stefan
