How to move settings folder to another directory (e.g. subdir)?

[thoste]

Currently all VLC settings are store here on a Windows system in directory

C:\Users\peter\AppData\Roaming\vlc\

How can I move this folder to another location (e.g. to a subdirectory of the VLC installation folder in

D:\tools\VLC\mysettings\

?

Is there a cmdline option where I can pass this non-default folder parameter?

Two ways:

1/ VLC.exe --config="P:ath\to\vlcrc"

or

2/ Make VLC being portable:
Download VLC 3.x, the ZIP or 7Zip file.
Extract it to the folder of your choice, then create a folder named "portable" (without quotes) where VLC.exe is.

Now copy or move the content of C:\Users\peter\AppData\Roaming\vlc\ into the folder named "portable" you have created before.
