    Lightbulb [Suggestion] Registry Entry.

    Really a silly niggle, but worth meantioning (?)

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Emulator\Dolp hin

    Would it not be preferable to store it in \Software\Dolphin afterall, 'Emulator' is a tad generic, and some other emulators also store entries in such a generic folder, abit messy imo.

    Personally I have always believed in good old fashionned ini's. Saves reg entry screw ups with new versions, easy to edit the ini to specific configurations, and easier to clean up / un-install.



    Regards CKemu.

    Yeah, I don't really care for my registry getting changed by an emulator. PCSX2 switched from registry entries to .ini and it was a change for the better.

    I agree.. .ini files are much better when it comes to emulation, much easier just to go into an ini file and edit configs rather than going into the registry.
