Summary0016861: Starting multiple Portable versions from Single folder
DescriptionIn 0016098 we have made some changes and Using /INIFILE is a bit cumbersome for some users.

There is an easier way to tell MM Where to start by changing "Start in:" Within Shortcut file.

The problem is that changed working folder is not used, but rather folder where MediaMonkey.exe is.

Using Steps below User can create multiple Shortcuts pointing to different Portable folders that each would have own options.
Steps To Reproduce1. Install MM Portable to c:\MM2261
2. Right click on MediaMonkey.exe and Drag & Drop to Desktop
3. Copy "c:\MM2261\Portable" to "c:\MMtemp\Portable"
4. Edit Properties and change "Start in" to "c:\MMtemp"
5. Start Shortcut.
6. Expected behavior would be that "c:\MMtemp\Portable" is used as current folder for settings/db not "c:\MM2261\Portable"

In addition to this an bugged behavior 0016862 surfaced.

I don't get it, what's to be done in this issue? Is there anything to fix at all?
