Description of Issue
I use ROON on a W2k19 server and that is all it does.
I see that ROON is installed in C:\Users\Administrator/AppDate/Local
Is there a way to backup the data and do a flatten and reload of ROON outside of the user folder? Or in other words, why there instead of C:\programs?
To allow the installation on normal Windows installations without the need for administrator rights.

…or in my case, it is also installed in the same location except in a different user’s config.
I have it installed twice, so I am looking to clean up the install, generally manually removing the parts that are not needed.
What registry needs to be cleaned up?

Hi @Mike_Site
If you want to move your Roon database to a different User, you can install the app on that user and then restore a backup . After doing so, you can simply delete the Roon
folder on the old user and that should work for you.
