Feature Request: Allow subfolder NVCleanstall to be created in same place as NVCleanstall_X.X.exe

[wazer]

As title state, let us allow to work/save modded files in same path as nvclean exe file.

as a bonus please add NVCleanstall_nvidia_version_number to folder name - (example) NVCleanstall_536.23

You can just "show in explorer" and copy the folder. Not sure if adding a UI option can make that easier?

Its more of skipping doing that the lazy way and also doing achives of various drivers without having to rename'n'move your self.

This should be pretty much what you want? default filename is "NVCleanstall_NVIDIA_536.23_x64_dch_Desktop_Setup.exe"

Yeah but want to avoid unnecessary writing and would like have work/writing directory to be where the file is ran from and not have a single install file.

Maybe I could add a 4th button here?

"Copy Folder" "Saves the NVCleanstall workspace to a folder, for later installation"

Thoughts on wording?

No plans to change the work directory, %TEMP% is perfect for this. Your SSD will not die because 1 or 2 GB get written to it

No and no, working directory is still using %temp%, I get that you want that as default but before you move one it would be awesome to have a chance to NOT use temp as working directory but the directory of where the file has been started from.

Also having a "copy" folder action just gives more work, first you have to pick a folder where to save it, but you also need to rename the folder and it will not automatic output the folder "driver_version"

The initiate request would be to have the driver download/installation/extraction being run from the working directory of NVCleanstall.exe, so if Im running it from d:\apps\nvncleanstall\NVCleanstall.exe then I would like the whole working project to be d:\apps\nvncleanstall , the download path, extraction,creation etc, but also the rename/save of the files including the driver version name included into it.

I hope it make sense.

but the directory of where the file has been started from.

I guess I could add a command line option. But why?

but you also need to rename the folder and it will not automatic output the folder "driver_version"

I guess I could provide some defaults, which might work just for you and not for anybody else, so they'd have to do the typing
