I downloaded the Latest SVN from here (http://www.emucr.com/2016/08/dosbox-svn-r3991.html)

I get this up:

So there no Config File.

So How do you make Config Files for the SVN Version? and Where does the Original one us?

Not sure about the other differences of this version, but from the manual of the regular one:

CONFIG -writeconf filelocation
CONFIG -writelang filelocation
CONFIG -securemode
CONFIG -set "section property=value"
CONFIG -get "section property"

CONFIG can be used to change or query various settings of DOSBox
during runtime. It can save the current settings and language strings to
disk. Information about all possible sections and properties can
be found in Section 13: "The configuration (options) file".

-writeconf filelocation
Write the current configuration settings to a file in a specified location.
"filelocation" is located on the local drive, not a mounted drive in DOSBox.

When you start DOSBox for the first time it automatically creates the config file in %username%\AppData\Local\DOSBox\

And if you have the DOSBox console window open it tells you where it's writing the config and which config file(s) it's using.

Thanks for that Info. I looked and I see where it is.

Thanks for that Info.

Then can you use that Config Files to make Shortcuts to load other games and changes you might need to make for a Game?

Of course, you can.
