Thank you for the solution, but isn't better to place the settings.ini file into the ScummVM folder as default so just to launch the ScummVM.exe avoiding to create batch files? The batch file may be made instead to load scummvm.ini files placed in others owners pc folders (more rare situation).

Hi, may be useful to add a check, if a scummvm.ini is present in root of ScummVM dir, use it instead that in %APPDATA%\ScummVM\scummvm.ini, so if I'm using the unzipped version, I may use it in another pc without to lose games configurations (same thing with Saved games dir too), what you thing about?

ok, thank you

You might get in trouble with using C:\ScummVM if more then one user on the same machine tries to run ScummVM. I get to sit behind a real live Vista computer with UAC o...

I know, but the problem is I can't use any variable... ScummVM doesn't interpretes them... If I am not mistaken it is the OS the interprets that, not ScummVM. This would mean you have some non-ScummVM related problem. Anyway..... Why not go the oldskool way and just use the C:\Scummvm directory for...

Hello! I made a little batch file with this commands: if not exist "%AppData%\ScummVM" md "%AppData%\ScummVM" if not exist "%AppData%\ScummVM\scummvm.ini" copy scummvm.ini "%AppData%\ScummVM\" if not exist "%AppData%\ScummVM\ScummVM_Saves" md "%...
