What happened?

I had a project for my company, where i had to create a Software Package via a Software Distribution Program, for usage inside the company. In order to have a good Installation and Uninstallation Path, which is working on every Windows Machine, i wanted to put the Miniforge3 folder into the "Program Files" Directory, this didn´t work because of the space. I´ve found a workaround and was able to finish my project, still i was wondering, cause this directory would be the perfect place to save the Software Directory, if or why you guys can´t solve the problem, so that people can save the Miniforge3 folder inside of the "Program Files" directory. I think it would be a sensible addition to the program.

Greetings,
Stephan

The Miniforge installers are maintained by conda-forge, not Anaconda. Anaconda's installers are Miniconda and Anaconda Distribution.

Please file the issue at the Miniforge repository: https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/
