Documentation incorrectly lists `%USERPROFILE%\resticprofile` as a config search path

Open TheRealTurtler opened this issue 4 months ago • 1 comments

Description

The documentation currently states that profiles.yaml can be located in:

%USERPROFILE%\resticprofile

However, this path is not actually searched by resticprofile. Only the following directories seem to be searched:

  • %LOCALAPPDATA%\resticprofile
  • %APPDATA%\resticprofile
  • C:\ProgramData\resticprofile
  • C:\restic\
  • C:\resticprofile\
  • %USERPROFILE%
  • {{ .BinDir }} (directory containing resticprofile.exe)

Environment

  • OS: Windows 10 x64
  • resticprofile version: 0.32.0 commit f222ed24006d6161767106cb8b9f38fe74266473
