Request: make code files in ProgramData read-only.
Posted: Tue Jul 09, 2019 12:50 pm
A completely selfish request.
More than a few times, I have been debugging a plugin using Visual Studio, and break out of the debugger at a point where I've seen a problem.
I then start fixing the problem, and after a couple of minutes, I realise (usually because intellisense isn't working) that I'm editing the "ProgramData" version of the plugin, not the one that's in my Visual Studio project.
Since I can't think of a good reason for them to be editable, can they please be made "read-only"? That way, Visual Studio won't let me accidently edit them.
