h2. Locate global configuration config directory following standard on Windows Saving cfg files in a global location reduces future need for copying old configuration to updated installation. The location is different for different versions of Windows. To locate the one for your Windows version: # go to C:\\python25\Lib\Site-Packages\leginon # run configcheck.py The script gives the three search directories of the cfg files and the loaded file if present. Note the first search directory that with a name most likely start with *C:\\Programs* and ends with *\myami*. This is the *global configuration directory* we will use.
