Hi guys,

due to my Latex files and TeXLive distro living on my "D:"-drive, but 
the Kile %Appdata% being in 
"C:\users\current_user\AppData\roaming\.kde", I keep getting compilation 
error:

*****

***** LivePreview-PDFLaTeX output:

***** *cd "D:/MasterThesis/MasterThesis-Kile"*

***** pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode test2.tex

*****

This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.4-1.40.13 (TeX Live 2012/W32TeX)

restricted \write18 enabled.


entering extended mode

! I can't find file `test2.tex'.

<*> test2.tex

(Press Enter to retry, or Control-Z to exit)

Please type another input file name

! Emergency stop.

<*> test2.tex

! ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

Transcript written on texput.log.


I can reproduce this using PowerShell and the culprit is the missing 
"/D" parameter using the "change directory" command. Where can I change 
that to:


*cd /D "D:/MasterThesis/MasterThesis-Kile"*


Thank you very much!
