Can I customise the exercism cli download/install location?

Hey everyone!

I’ve recently transitioned from a mac to a windows machine and I have set up a ‘dev drive’ which is kinda windows specific and I want to know if there is a way to change / designate a install / dowload location when running the cli tool.

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome,
You can change it using Exercism configure -w newpath or if you want to mess with the file directly you can do the following

Go to your terminal, type in Exercism configure, it will show you the config directory (Usually in C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\exercism)

After you move to that folder, you can open the user.json file and then change the workspace key to a different value.
