A great idea that is, unfortunately, useless to anyone who installed PG anywhere other than the default install path. We need to be able to edit the path to our courses folders' location.

It auto detects the "steamapps" folder underneath which PG would be installed and subsequently the "Courses" folder would be. We have already checked with other players some of whom including myself do not have Steam installed on the default C: drive.

JoeF are you saying it isn't picking up the correct folder for you ?

I use a virtual link between the Courses folder in my PG install (D:\SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\Perfect Golf\Courses) and the actual physical location of my courses on another drive (G:\PG Courses). I would need to be able to edit the course folder path for your program to actually see the physical course files. When I run the program it shows the default installation path (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Perfect Golf\Courses) and will not allow editing of the path to point it to the location of the files.

With v1.6 I can now change the path to the folder (G:\PG Courses) after selecting Override Detection but nothing happens. The Scan and Open Courses Folder are still grayed out and nothing shows in the windows.

Under normal circumstances the PG courses folder will get detected automatically regardless what drive it is on.

If my program isn't doing so you can use the "Override Detection" button I added in version 1.7
