Installing to a new location

[Bill_M]

I'm trying to upgrade to 6.52 and getting a "Cannot Install Newsbin, Is Newsbin Running?" message. But I think I know what is causing it. The installer is trying to write the new files to the wrong location. Let me explain. I recently upgraded to a new version of Linux. Newsbin is installed on a drive that gets mounted after bootup. This new version mounts drives in a different location. Newsbin used to be in \media\terabyte\newsbin now it is in \media\bill\terabyte\newsbin. Even after the change newsbin started and ran just fine when I double clicked the .nbi file. The installer, however, appears to be trying to write the files to z:\media\terabyte\newsbin. (z: is how WINE assigns drives) So I'm guessing that the old location is some data file. If I'm right, can you tell me what I need to change for the installer to work? And if there are any other places to check if the path is correct? Thanks.

The installer looks in the windows registry for the location of the installation folder. If you moved it after running the installer, it won't know where to look to perform an upgrade. You can manually change it by going under HKCU\Software\DJI Interprises\Newsbin50\Settings and modify the InstallDir registry key.

Thanks, that did the trick. And here I thought I would never need to use the registry editor when I switched to Linux
