<The Apollo> Hey, this is the first time I am trying Principia; I read the wiki a few times, downloaded the latest folder, and put it in Game Data. But I get the instant crash when I try to start a new save. I am on Windows and trying to find the log. Any suggestions?
<queqiao-->
<kuzinat0r> You should download the latest release, not the folder

<The Apollo> Isn't that Google Drive Folder "principia خوارزمی for 1.12.5.zip"?
<raptop>
sounds correct there. To ask a silly question, was it unzipped under GameData?

<egg> How are you starting KSP? the working directory is system32, so you are not going to space today. Some badly configured shortcut perhaps?

<The Apollo> That was it. Typically, I start it with a shortcut from my favorites, which was never an issue with regular RP-1. I just tried starting it from the main install folder, and everything is peachy. Thanks a lot.
<queqiao-->
<egg> Well, you need to fix the Start in: value in the properties of the shortcut.
<queqiao-->
<egg> Perhaps it did not cause RP-1 to crash, but it still meant you didn’t get a KSP.log, and I wouldn’t be surprised if other things were silently broken.
<queqiao-->
<egg> We break more loudly.

<queqiao-->
<The Apollo> that is probably true. Totally forgot about changing the Start in: value
<raptop>
💭 Why is it called a working directory when we're playing games in it?

<siimav> Yeah, I put in a bunch of effort so that RP-1 and the mods we maintain wouldn't break and someone else would have to deal with the stupid PDLauncher fallout.
