Have you searched for similar requests?

Yes

SillyTavern-Launcher does not support an existing SillyTavern installation out of the box and there is no documentation I could find suggesting that it will, unless you're savvy enough to drop the launcher in the parent directory below your SillyTavern installation, because it hardcodes '.\SillyTavern'. This applies to Windows. Not sure about linux/macos.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add an option under '1) Install SillyTavern' to support an existing installation.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Configure Existing SillyTavern Installation, which would essentially ask for an installation directory and drop it in a config file next to launcher.cmd or something.

Additional context

No response

Priority

Low (Nice-to-have)

Is this something you would be keen to implement?
