[QUOTE="davegson, post: 1013726, member: 92101"] Aah, yeah - after reading my response my gut told me I was off a bit haha. Anyway, [B]yes, this is now possible[/B]. Within the App view, you can "Create Profile" [ATTACH type="full" alt="create profile.png"]271118[/ATTACH] and then define metrics such as a path etc. [ATTACH type="full" alt="path.png"]271119[/ATTACH] This is also useful to create profiles for apps which change the path after each updated version - previously you had to re-configure the settings after each update. Not anymore! First off, Portmaster integrates into the network stack, it is not an everyday app. Second, to be honest, on Linux this is not the case in 100% of the cases. We still communicate it like that though. Since Linux environments are vastly different, sometimes something somewhere just goes wrong.
