I have used the same shortcut I had made to start the qt client with a custom datadir.

Up until today it has worked fine.

But today it will not work.  It just loads bitcoin-qt like there was no datadir and uses the default directory.


Anyone have any ideas?

What I am using is:

Q:\Bitcoin-QT\bitcoin-qt.exe datadir=Q:\APP_DATA\Bitcoin

Assuming that the datadir path is correct, you could try it with a hyphen before "datadir".

Q:\Bitcoin-QT\bitcoin-qt.exe -datadir=Q:\APP_DATA\Bitcoin

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
