I was wondering whether or how running Zoom player with multiple configurations works with Vista. The old guide
(http://www.inmatrix....multicopy.shtml) suggested to create multiple copies from the program directory and add the zplayer.regpath file. The trouble is, i think Zoom Player is not looking in the program directory anymore for any configuration files, but in C:\ProgramData\Zoom Player. Can anyone confirm this? In this case, we would need a separate command line option to specify another ProgramData directory i guess?

Hm, i just found out about the new /config switch in 6.0 which is supposed to work with"Max/Premium" versions. So i have a premium version and it doesn't work - the specified .local files simply aren't created. Did anyone have luck with this?

It seems ZP does not create them - if you specify an existing .local file it works.

Use the following checkbox : Options->System->"Save Configuration to a Local File"
The file should be where your ZP Application data is..
(like C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Zoom Player).
