Editing or changing colorschemes on windows

[Friedrich Seuhs]

Digikam uses 3 databasefile for storing databaseinfos thumbnails ...

My installation uses an extra directory outside the Program Files directory for storing these 3 files.

It is c:\digikam\Datenbanken

Digikam is installed in C:\Program Files\digikam

I uninstall digikam. C:\Program Files\digikam dissappears!

I install digikam again. C:\Program Files\digikam again appears.

I start digikam. No question where to find the databasefiles. Digikam looks like it was not uninstalled, all my collections are present, all metadata available.

Where does digikam remeber the directory c:\digikam\Datenbanken?

Look for configuration files. I think there are 4 of them, one is digikamrc
