Hello

After having some problems with client stability lately (which resulted in various settings reset to defaults), I began to wonder, would it be possible to store client settings (cache and settings folders to be exact) on in the cloud (i.e. Dropbox) and only keep shortcuts in the default folder (%userprofile%\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_program_files_ccp_eve_tranquility)?

On Linux-based system I would simply create two symbolic links pointing to my cloud storage in the default location and be on my way, but, when it comes to Windows, I'm not sure it will have the desired effect.

Does any one have any experience in the above?
