WinPython base read-only on a multi-user system, changes written to user directory? #637
Closed

Description

@kannes

I would like to use WinPython to provide many people with an good base and easy setup for Python development. Our computer systems are shared machines with user-specific things being saved on a network drive.

We want the WinPython base installation to be installed once per system but allow users to configure it and install packages. Those alterations should be stored in their user directory.

Is there a way to install WinPython system-wide as administrator and have it save all changes, installs and configuration on a specific, external path (e.g. the X: drive is the user's home directory, so "X:\WinPython" or something)? We might have some system variable mapped to that, I would have to check.
