How To: Libraries
You can choose to use this functionality, or simply use the default paths!

The latest version of iniManager introduces a new way to manage install paths using library groups and symlinks, making it easier to control where your products are installed while keeping everything neat and tidy!

Here's how to set it up!

1. Set a default group that points to your main simulator addon/community folder location. (Important!)
2. If you only use the default group, products will install directly to those paths without any extra configuration.
3. To add a new folder/location (e.g. another folder or drive), create a new path group via the button in the bottom right.
4. When installing a product, you’ll be asked which group to use, iniManager will install to that location and create a symlink pointing back to the default group.
5. Once you've installed a product, you can toggle their visibility on/off. Go to the Sim Paths configuration screen, and select "Manage Products" on the group you wish to edit.
6. From here you can view products installed in each group and enable/disable them. This adds/removes the symlink without deleting files.
7. Use the Simulator Path section to scan for manually installed products. iniManager can link them properly so they show up in the app.
8. If you remove a symlink, the product will appear uninstalled in iniManager, but the files remain on your drive.
9. To fully uninstall, use the uninstall button from the product’s page, not just the path settings.
10. Liveries are installed in the same location as the product they belong to.
11. Deleting a path group from settings will not delete the folder or its contents, it just removes it from iniManager’s control.
