installer does not import music folder info to server settings field in web gui

i uninstalled and then reinstalled slimserver on windows. during the installation, i specified a directory where my mp3s are stored. when slimserver started, none of my music was visible in the song/artist/album lists, and the music (and playlists) folders were empty. i had to manually enter the path to my music folder and rescan before any of the mp3s were visible. i am going to file a related enhancement request for browse buttons for entering the paths to the music and playlists folders (it became obvious one was needed when the import from the installation didn't work :)).
Rachel, I'm not able to recreate the problem. I uninstalled SlimServer, confirmed that the c:\Program Files\SlimServer directory no longer existed, installed the 3/24/05 version, specified my music directory path (which was different from the default), restarted SlimServer, and confirmed that the music (and playlist) folders were correctly remembered. Am I missing something that you might have done differently?
i just tried with a new build and can also not reproduce it, although i was able to both times i tried with the earlier version. weird. feel free to close...
