Then you can drag the file from one folder to another. In another pane open a folder to move the file to. Open a folder to move a file from in one of the panes. It has four simultaneous panes with which to browse through your folders and files. Then open the Q-Dir window in the shot above. Open the extracted folder, and click Q-Dir_Installer.exe to run the setup wizard and add the software to Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8. Then right-click the Zip and select Extract All to extract it. For 32-bit Windows click Q-Dir_Installer.zip and for the 64-bit alternative select Q-Dir_Installer_圆4.zip. This page includes a list of Q-Dir files that you can save to Windows to install and use Q-Dir. How to browse four folders or drives in Windows simultaneously

However, the Q-Dir file explorer displays four simultaneous Windows Explorer panes. Consequently, you need to open multiple Windows Explorer windows to drag and drop, or move, files from one folder to another. I recommend you instead use QSettings as documented in its basic usage.One of the limitations of Windows Explorer is that it only displays the contents of one folder. However, looking at the Qt source, this shouldn't be possible because applicationDirPath() already does just that. If that is really the case, then take the file path, and remove the executable file from it. But note that doing this will force you to install the application to user home folder (because you can't write to system folders like /user/local/bin, and you shouldn't change this by changing permissions, either).īased on comments, it seems QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() gives wrong directory, but QCoreApplication::applicationFilePath() gives correct path. If I read correctly what you want, that is path to application folder to store settings in, you need QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath(). Looks like your desktop environment's file manager sets current directory to home folder when you run software by double clicking, and this is generally sensible, because that is usually what user would want, when opening files from the app etc. Don't depend on current working directory (returned by QDir::currentPath()), because that can be basically anything.
