Topic: Dropzone install application folder issue

In Dropzone 0.3.3 we updated the install destination so it installs to the user Applications folder if it exists.
By default, you shouldn't have a user Applications folder. So applications should be installed by default to /Applications.

Since then, users tell me that Steam for Mac can cause a /Users/<username>/Applications folder to be created. Also, some users want to keep a /Users/<username>/Applications but still have most applications install to /Applications.

Based on this it looks like we will have to make the install path an option in a future version.

In the meantime, if you don't mind some manual hackery, you can fix this yourself:

Navigate into /Applications/Dropzone, right click on Dropzone.app and click 'Show Package Contents' then go into Contents/Resources/Destination Scripts and open 'Install Application.dropzone' with your text editor. Change line 17 (the line that reads destination = InstallApp.install_destination) to:

destination = "/Applications/"

Save the file and then applications will be installed there in future.
