Comment(by cypherpunks):
(not OP)
Maybe a three step approach?
1) If specified on command line, then use as told
2) If not, check if in Roaming, if so, then create necessary folders in
Local and warn the user that they should manually move the files
themselves and delete the folder in Roaming
3) If not in Roaming, then check Local, use or create files there
The other option for 2) is to just do a hard cut-over and have some
warnings to the user that it's happening. The issue with this is that it
doesn't give the user an opportunity to continue using the old files. Or
Tor could copy everything itself and delete the folder in Roaming, which
may not be a terrible idea given the situation, either.
