[Fixed] TCPView leftovers in AppData

There is a folder "Sysinternals" and a file "tcpview.ini" in it at %USERPROFILE%\AppData.

I believe it is an oversight,

I believe it is an oversight, the INI file should be moved back to the application folder once the app is shut down, not stay in AppData for the whole time.

Change Anything?

By default, it uses the registry. Did you change something or did the app change?

No, i didn't change anything.

No, i didn't change anything. Just to make sure I deleted the folder, launched the app again and turned it off. The folder (and the file in it) was re-created and is still there.

EDIT:
I've just uninstalled and installed the app again. The problem still occurs.

Must've Changed

They must have switched from the registry to an INI. I'll work up an update.

LOCALAPPDATA?

Did you mean LOCALAPPDATA? I can reproduce it there.
