A while ago, I started using the portable version of Paint.NET provided by this site. Before this, I was using a different portable Paint.NET which used the PortableApps Launcher, but was made by a third party.
One nice feature of this unofficial version is that it had the program's plugin folders (i.e. Effects and FileTypes) in the DATA folder. The PortableApps Launcher would then move these folders into Paint.NET's root folder when launching the program. There are two advantages of this approach:
1. The plugins are available for both the x86 and x64 versions of the program without having to make two copies of each one.
2. You're much less likely to have your plugins get deleted when installing an update.
Would it be possible to add this to add this feature to the official portable Paint.NET? Thanks.
Also, on a side note, would it be possible to change the app's name in the PortableApps Platform to "Paint.NET", instead of the current all lowercase name (paint.net). I personally think the former looks better. Thanks again.
