Scid 4.3 and 4.2.2 for Windows

Post by Norbert Raimund Leisner »

Hello together,

Scid 4.3 shows after extraction and setup-procedure an error message like:
"bases directory not find" - the same with Scid 4.2.2 for Windows

http://sourceforge.net/projects/scid ~ URL

Is that intention, coincidence or mistake? What is your opinion about?

Best wishes,
Norbert

Isn't it simply a matter of you yourself setting the Options -> Bases directory?

I think Marek's right. I recall there were incorrect paths with the default install of Scid 4.3.
