Application path assumption

moritztim opened this issue · comments

Describe the bug
The injector assumes dc is installed in the default location even if it is not.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  • move or install discord canary in some directory that is not /Applications
  • run powercord

Expected behavior
I expected it to ask for a path when it didn't find it or have a config file for changing the path.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: MacOS Monterey 12.0.1
  • Powercord version: v2 (f7504cf)

Additional context

  • I checked if Discord and/or Powercord are up to date
  • I made sure this is not related to an external plugin or a theme

(I installed it in the standard dir now, tho I would much prefer having it in another dir).

As a temporary solution, you can create a symbolic link pointing the default location to where you moved it. Run ln -s <new Discord path> /Applications/Discord\ Canary.app. Note that a symbolic link is different from an alias.

That’s a great idea thanks!
