Hello, this bug-report system is very difficult to handle. 

My problem: 
It appears that the digikamrc file is installed in a false directory under Windows 10: 

\users\username\AppData\Local 

instead of 

\users\username\Appdata\Local\digicam

At least I found the files there when I encountered an error after digikam re-install

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.
