- (2023-02-13, v:0.4.1) Jeff Brown: Node.js Installation
I tried installing Nod.js but windows tells me the installation package could not be opened. Instead I downloaded the Zip file and unzipped it to C:\Program Files (x86)\node-v18.14.0-win-x64. Does it need to be in a specific location for the extension to work? - (2022-08-26, v:0.3.0) s i: ,が含まれるフォルダが開かない
,を含むフォルダについては、通知では正しいパス名を表示しているが、実際に開かれるフォルダは「ドキュメント」フォルダになります。 パスに,を含む場合は無理なんでしょうか? - (2020-06-04, v:0.2.0) SS: 左クリックで開く
リンクの左クリックでフォルダが開くと大変助かります。組織内に展開する場合、右クリックして使うということを周知することが難しいためです。フォルダが開くだけなのでセキュリティ的にも問題ないかと。 また、これはできればですが、インストール時にすでにNative Messaging Hostが正しくインストールされている場合は、オプション画面を開かないようにしてほしいです。Native側はあらかじめダウンロードして配布したいためです。
