Installing static application support data in the %APPDATA% path (in your case C:\Users\myPC\AppData\Roaming\) is the intended, expected, and proper place to do so for ANY windows application, even when choosing to install the runtime files elsewhere.

No windows application that utilizes setting storage can be completely isolated from using the system drive. Monero, DOGE, FIRO, etc all utilize the windows registry to store basic GUI application setting data, and the windows registry is on your C drive.

Windows only creates shortcuts to a D drive install of DOGE, FIRO etc. on the C drive. You can delete every remnant instance on the C drive of those wallets if completely installed on another partition. Meaning, Windows will create shortcuts again in the registry and in C:\Users\myPC\AppData\Roaming\ when you open the wallets in another partition.

The whole idea here is to fully install the PIVX wallet on a separate partition and have the wallet completely survive a C drive wipe. Meaning if you reinstall the OS to the C drive, and then open the wallet on the D drive, the wallet is fully functional. This can be done with DOGE, Monero, FIRO wallets. PIVX on the other hand creates a complete dependency on the C drive by not allowing a complete install on another partition.

You've gotten your answer. the current behavior is the correct and proper behavior and we will not be changing such behavior.

Its more of a feature than expected behavior. Why not support it? Pretty triggering isn't it?
