In Windows, when running the app by dragging and dropping the file into the terminal, the data folder along with the preferences and config files will appear in the source path instead of as stated in the UG.

Although not mentioned in the UG, this is a valid method of running the application and might cause confusion to users who choose to use this method to run the application.

Team's Response

We believe that such behaviour is not an issue to the majority of users. Fixing it requires much more effort and does not significantly enhance the user experience for the majority who follows the user guide.

Our instruction in our UG is to cd to the folder and run it from there. Furthermore, we do specify the command to run the file. Hence, there should be no ambiguity here.
