Prism Import using incorrect Instances directory #4490

Description

Please confirm the following.

  • I checked the existing issues for duplicate problems
  • I have tried resolving the issue using the support portal
  • I have ensured my Modrinth App installation is up to date

What version of the Modrinth App are you using?

0.10.9

What operating systems are you seeing the problem on?

Windows

Describe the bug

My installation of Prism is located at E:/Documents/Minecraft/Prism, but my instances are located at E:/Documents/Minecraft/Instances. I configured this in Prism, and this path is stored as the InstanceDir value in prismlauncher.cfg.

When I attempt to import an instance from Prism Launcher, the app attempts to access the instance from E:/Documents/Minecraft/Prism/instances (the default location), ignoring my configuration, and resulting in an import error.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Set up the Prism Launcher to use a non-default Instances folder (Settings -> Launcher -> Features -> Folders -> Instances, change the path)
  2. Use Modrinth app to attempt to import the custom instance.

Expected behavior

The Modrinth app should check the user's configuration properly, and successfully store the value.

Additional context

I can confirm that reconfiguring Prism to use the default instances folder, then copying my instance there, successfully prevents the reported error.
