Auto-generated Application Support folders

Hi 1P_Dave, thanks for the reply.

Currently 1Password 8 creates those files and directories every time it launches (I've tested it by deleting the folders). So in the case of a user installing a browser after having installed 1Password, the browser would be able to communicate with 1Password the next time they would launch 1Password.

1Password 8 is an electron application right? So I am assuming there is a startup script that creates these files which means that checking if the directories exist before creating the files should not take any more than this:


fs.access("/path/to/directory", (error) => {
if (error && error.code === "ENOENT") {
// Directory not found
}
});


The reason I mention this is because I keep my Application Support directory organized (I keep any application specific files in the application's folder under Application Support) and find having skeleton folders of applications that I do not have installed frustrating (similar to how Windows 10 had the "3D Objects" folder that you couldn't remove).
