- Windows 10 Pro edition:
- Version 2.1.2:
- No modification to
.hyper.js, except for theshellset to use bash: - No relevant information in the dev tools
- The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app
Issue
This is not an issue per se, but rather a request for improvement. I haven't seen this feature existing on the official web page, nor any issue opened about that, but then again, I'm not the best github user, so I apologize if it's a duplicate !
I would like to be able to change the plugins location : I am currently on a corporate computer, that limits the use of the user directory in windows. Using NPM simply destroys that limit (which is like 100MB), and produces annoying results on said computer.
Would it be possible to add a property to the config, stating where th plugins are located ?
Thank you for your time and interest !

Research direction
Start with the .hyper.js configuration and the plugin installation or loading path, then check how Hyper resolves plugins on Windows 10. Done means users can configure a different plugin location and Hyper reliably loads plugins from it without requiring the default user directory.
