OK, first off, thanks for bearing with me folks. It seems like I made nearly every possible mistake in that last process. I am assimilating information though, and feel like that filled in some rather glaring gaps in my understanding.
So the other box, this one is really odd. It used to work, it has probably been almost a year now though. As I recall I was making some hardware changes and moving drives around and it never worked again. I have battered myself against it multiple times, to the point of complete uninstall/reinstall cycles only to eventually give up in despair.
The behavior is that it refuses to recognize custom pathing args. It just seems to ignore them. It does not matter if they are entered under the file/settings/general/let Armory...dialog, as a shortcut arg or in a .conf file (I tried last night after getting that straight).
Win7pro 64
Core 0.15.1
RC3
armorylog entering args with armoryqt.conf
https://pastebin.com/6KAhxf6Uthe pathing SHOULD BE "G:\Program Files (x86)\Armory\ArmoryQt.exe" -- satoshi-datadir="G:\Blockchain\blocks" --datadir="G:\armory" or the syntactical varient for the entry method
armorylog entering args with shortcut
