What's Going Wrong?
I am unable to install the Hermes desktop app because the installer does not provide an option to select or change the installation directory.
By default, the installer attempts to install the application into the default user directory (C:\Users<Username>\AppData...). However, my Windows user profile directory contains Cyrillic characters, which results in a file path that is both too long and contains non-ASCII characters. This causes the installation process to fail completely.
Requested Solution / Feature Request:
Could you please add an option to the installer that allows users to manually specify a custom destination folder (e.g., C:\Hermes)? Alternatively, please ensure the installer supports long file paths and Unicode/Cyrillic characters in user directories.
Steps Taken
- Run the Hermes desktop app installer.
- Observe that there is no step/option to choose a custom installation path.
- The installation fails due to path length/character encoding issues.
