Menu Sounds > Default sounds doesn't point to the right folder (Win10)

When selecting the option Default sounds, it doesn't load a list of the default sounds, but an empty one in Win10.
Seems to be pointing to the wrong location because it erases the previously loaded list.
What happens if you delete sample-library.json from /Documents/Mercury/Data, and restart the Project? Does it create a new file in that folder with all the files loaded correctly? Also, does it correctly load files if you choose add sounds? What is the result shown under show loaded sounds
Manually choosing the folder works and writes the paths correctly in sample-library.json. What seems to be the problem is automatically finding the default directory where the samples are located.
This is where mine are as shown in the created .json file:
"noise_a": "C:/Users/Guillem/Documents/Max 8/Projects/mercury-master/mercury_ide_0.9.9/media/samples//noise/noise_a.wav"
Also noticed a double // in the path.
This is the actual Win10 path to the file in case it's useful:
C:\Users\Guillem\Documents\Max 8\Projects\mercury-master\mercury_ide_0.9.9\media\samples\noise\noise_a.wav
Okay! Will have to look into that. At least once you loaded the files it should keep using the last loaded selection. And also if you pull a newer version later on you shouldn't have to reload the samples since it still used the sample-library.json from the Documents/Mercury/Data
This should be fixed in the latest commit. If not, could you check what is printed to the console on startup under "system-info" : { "app" : .... }, this should have the path to the project folder of Mercury. For example:
"system-info", {
"user" : "/Users/<username>",
"app" : "/Users/<username>/Documents/Max 8/Projects/mercury/mercury_ide_0.9.9/code",
"type" : "Darwin",
"release" : "16.7.0",
"platform" : "darwin"
}Not fixed. Sound library still points out to the previous manually assigned folder, but Sounds > Default sounds still doesn't point to the default folder.
Here's information on my system-info:
node.script: [ "system-info", {
"user" : "C:\\Users\\Guillem",
"app" : "C:\\Users\\Guillem\\Documents\\Max 8\\Projects\\mercury-master\\mercury_ide_0.9.9\\code",
"tmp" : "C:\\Users\\Guillem\\AppData\\Local\\Temp",
"type" : "Windows_NT",
"release" : "10.0.18362",
"platform" : "win32",
"ip" : "DESKTOP-QLNR585"
}
