[Bug] Windows: Preview never starts when loading ink files from Documents folder
On Windows 10, saving an ink file directly into the Documents folder (in my case C:/Users/Tom/Documents/test.ink
), and then loading it, will cause the story preview to be stuck loading and never start. According to console errors, the app seems to look for the My Music, My Pictures & My Videos subfolders, yet this Documents
folder doesn't have any of those as subfolders.
My workaround was simply to save the ink file in another folder (e.g. saving as C:/Users/Tom/Documents/ink/test.ink
worked for me).
