Summary
AI summaryFixed installer writing Claude Desktop config to the correct MSIX‑virtualized path on Windows.
Full changelog
Installer fix for Windows MSIX builds of Claude Desktop (#93, reported by @corolorn). No tool-surface change.
Fixed
- Installer writes Claude Desktop config to the MSIX-virtualized path on Windows — Claude Desktop for Windows ships as an MSIX package (even when downloaded from the official website, not the Microsoft Store). MSIX filesystem virtualization redirects the app's config to
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Claude_<publisherhash>\LocalCache\Roaming\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json,
and the app never reads the documented%APPDATA%\Claude\path — so the installer's config entry silently never appeared in the app. The installer now detects the containerized path (publisher hash globbed, not hard-coded) and writes there when present, falling back to%APPDATA%\Claude\for non-MSIX installs. AClaude_*package directory whose app has never been launched (noLocalCache\Roaming\Claudeyet) does not divert the config. - Documented both locations and the MSIX gotcha in
docs/install.md.
Tests
- 4 new unit tests covering MSIX-path preference, the non-MSIX fallback, the never-launched-package case, and the registered client entry on Windows. Full suite: 1527 passed.
