    <div>Thanks for the input Gilles. Looking
      into the \AppData configuration folder, it seemed like the config
      file would have been: yolov3-face.cfg <br>

      So I ran this, expecting to see my current installation boot:<br>
      <br>
      <font face="monospace" style="font-family:monospace;color:rgb(0,0,0)">digikam.exe --config
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\digikam\facesengine\yolov3-face.cfg</font><br>
      <br>
      Instead DigiKam opened as if it was opening for the 1st time. It
      just wasn't recognizing yolov3-face.cfg as a valid config file,
      and opened as a fresh installation no matter what file I pointed
      it to. That initial window that pops up refers to, "The new
      location for configuration files is ~/Local Settings/ ~(old
      AppData/Local/). But the only Digikam files there are 2 simple
      text files in the root AppData/Local/ folder,  digikam_systemrc 45
      KB and digikamrc 88KB that the --config command ignores.<br>
      <br>
      I can't see any other locations where a valid config file might
      be. And if the --help output for --database-directory <dir>
      is referring to a folder that should literally be named dir
      somewhere, I couldn't find it.<br>
      <br>
      Admittedly I'm not great at the technical end of things. 😉</div></div><div><div><br>

          <div> I've had a copy of Digikam installed and working well on
            my Windows 7 PC for some time now. Recently I find myself
            wanting a separate copy of Digikam to incorporate an
            completely different library of photos. Is that possible? <br>
            <br>
            I was wondering if that mcould be done by making a copy of
            the \<user>\AppData\Roaming\digikam folder, and
            uninstalling the program, deleting (or just moving) the
            original data folder, reinstalling it, and importing a
            different folder & sub-folders from a different file
            library. Then just switch the 2 \AppData\ folders when I
            want to switch between libraries. I'm guessing things
            probably aren't that simple. Is the any chance there's a
            more sophisticated method if possible at all?<br>
            <br>
            I'm also wondering if there's any way to have DigiKam use
            the existing files in the new library instead of copying
            them all to a separate location. My libraries are pretty
            large.<br>
            <br>
            Thanks for any feedback folks.<br>
