I wonder whether it is a bug or not. When you select menu "Help->Go to...->Config folder" application folder is opened, just like in case of   "Help->Go to...->Application folder".

It depends on how it is installed. or if running from portable device.

Normally configuration is located under the personal appdata folder

( eg win7 -> "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\MultiCommander\Config\"  )

But if running from portable device. Then we do not want to store the configuration on the host computer, so then everything is saved under the application folder.

As i can see, everything is saved into the "config" subfolder of the app folder. So maybe "Help->Go to...->Config folder" should lead to "%app_folder%\config" ?
