Re: v2.5.2 installation on Windows 10

Installation of 64bit could complete, but running Git GUI always prompt the

directory

Please see the corresponding ticket: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/376

In short: I will release an updated installer soon, with other fixes. In the meantime, as a work-around you could right-click on the Git GUI shortcut (you can right-click the icon in the Windows menu and open the file location to get there), select Properties... and change the Target: from

"C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git-gui.exe"

to

"C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git.exe" gui

It will open an ugly, unnecessary console until the next Git for Windows version is available, but at least it will work until then.

Out of curiosity: how did you go about finding the best place to report this bug?

Ciao,
