Setting Environment Variables - christopher-dG/unnoticed GitHub Wiki

Windows

This guide is for Windows 10 but probably applies to earlier versions, or at the very least the process will be very similar.

  1. Press the Windows key, then start typing "environment". You should see an option appear called "Edit environment variables for your account".

  1. In the "User variables for X" section, click "New".

  1. In the "Variable name" box, enter the name of the variable you want to set (probably OSU_ROOT or UNNOTICED_FORCE_DEFAULT_PARSING). In the "Variable value" box, enter the path to your osu! installation (or in the case of UNNOTICED_FORCE_DEFAULT_PARSING, anything at all). Then, press "OK".

  1. Press "OK" to save your changes.

MacOS/Linux

  1. Add a line like this to your $HOME/.bashrc:
export NAME=value

For example: export OSU_ROOT=$HOME/osu! or export UNNOTICED_FORCE_DEFAULT_PARSING=true.

If you use a shell other than Bash, you'll need to add this to a different file, but at that point it's quite likely that you already know how to set environment variables.
