every time I install mm4 it overwrites the existing mm4 ini and db config by creating a new ini/db in appdata/roaming/mediamonkey.
deleting the appdata/roaming/mediamonkey folder returns to my normal ini/db config.
note: I am using the mediamonkey.ini in the MM4 APPLICATION folder, and the DB is also stored there.
in other words, both INI and DB are with mediamonkey.exe
edit:
just installed 1349, I watched the installer create a new mediamonkey.ini in the appdata\roaming\mediamonkey folder even though there is a working mediamonkey.ini in the \program files x32\mediamonkey4\ folder.

Re: [1349] installer keeps overwriting manual ini
You're right, same here for custom DB location, it seems the whole ini was overwritten (in default location here).

Re: [1349] installer keeps overwriting manual ini
I'm actually baffled as to where MediaMonkey is reading the ini as the old one is intact.

Re: [1349] installer keeps overwriting manual ini
I just found out that the MediaMonkey.ini had 2 [System] sections after the update. This caused custom settings to be lost here.
