Title: How to set default directory for NWC 2 Player
Post by: Cyril N. Alberga on 2004-09-15 01:16 PM
I know I've asked this before, but I can't find the answer.

How do I set the default directory for "open" in NWC 2 Player?

The viewer does not have any built-in facility for specifying a default directory.

At one time, several years ago, you gave me instructions for either adding to/modifying the .ini file, or some manipulation of the registry which caused the NWC 1 Player to open in the directory where I save all my .nwc files.  As this is on my E drive, and several layers down in the directory tree, and as the NWC 2 Player currently always opens well down in the directory tree on my C drive, it is rather a chore to open anything which I want to listen to.

Would it be untoward to request that whatever worked (which, as I said I have totally forgotten) on the version 1 player be added to version 2?

After I open something (and even when I close the program and shut down my system), the player opens in the same directory each subsequent time, unless I go somewhere else.  Doesn't this happen for you?

No, it always opens in "NoteWorthy Composer 2 Viewer", in "Program Files".

Well, that's odd that it works for me and not for you.
Did you forget to leave cookies and milk out for Santa last year? ;-P

Cyril N. Alberga, are you using Win95/98?

Win95/98 does not save the ComDlg32 MRU's, WinME and above saves it

Yes, Win98SE.  But other programs, e.g. IrfanView, remember where they were last.
