Marktext: Change install path so that Admin rights aren't required. [Window]

Description

Hey thanks for the app, it looks great. Is there any way you could think about changing the default installation directory from C:\Program Files\ to a less privileged location. I would love to install the app on my work laptop but don't have admin rights. Another option would be to make the installation path configurable.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Download Windows binary and try to install.
  2. Installation prompts for admin login

Expected behavior: [What you expected to happen]

Download binary and try to install, program installs either to a user directory (e.g. C:\Users$USER\AppData\Roaming) or prompts for install path.

Versions

  • Mark Text: v.0.6.14
  • OS: Windows 7
