Description

How do I specify a storage path for the configuration file instead of putting it in my home directory, and I can't find config/micro on my install-free version.

I don't like to have software stuff lying around and would like the config file for micro to be in the same directory as micro. Even if it's a plugin

What should I do? I am using micro-2.0.10-win64.zip

Research direction

Start by checking how the Windows ZIP installation determines the configuration path and compare that with the reported micro-2.0.10-win64.zip layout. The issue mentions a missing config/micro directory but names no source file or test; done would be a clear documented answer or a documented change explaining how to place the configuration beside the executable.
