Old settings lost.

I installed build 661 over my exisiting installation and now all my settings like code style, colors, libraries and so on are gone. Did the format of the settings compleatly change from build 651?

Regards

Ehh, hmmm,
I just read the release notes for build 661...

Installation. On Windows systems 'config' and 'system'
directories are configured by default to user's home directory


I guess it's a case of the good old RTFM... :)

you can set
-Didea.system.path and -Didea.config.path
in the batch file.
I don't think this was mentioned in the release notes,
so it's rather Read-The-Batch-File-Carefully
