SUMMARY

After overwriting kritarc (linux) with kritarc (windows), krita (appimage) fails to start. 

I want to use the previous krita configuration on other computers.
Then found this bug.

Even if they are all windows, different user names will cause the previous krita configuration to be unable to be used normally. 

There is no such bug in 4.4.8. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open krita (windows) to move Dockers at will. 
2. Overwrite kritarc (linux) with kritarc (windows). 

OBSERVED RESULT
Krita (appimage) failed to start. 

EXPECTED RESULT
Start normally as in 4.4.8.
And kritarc works.

After configuring krita, several fixed directories will be written in the kritarc file.
I think it should be caused by this. 
ResourceCacheDbDirectory=C:/Users/username/AppData/Roaming/krita
ResourceDirectory=C:/Users/username/AppData/Roaming/krita

swaplocation=C:/Users/username/AppData/Local/Temp

This is something that "might" have worked, but never was supported, sorry.

Thank you, now I know about it.
