    Description

      On Linux, when Qt is installed in a  write-protected location ( e.g. /opt/qt ), Qt Creator offers to copy the example to another location when clicking on it (and conveniently, as on windows, opens the help for this example). On windows it opens the example in the installed location, even if it is read only, and, of course, you won't be able to configure or build it.

      Attached some screenshots to show the linux functionality and windows error messages. (Danish "Adgang nægtet" means "Access Denied" in english)

      Can this multi user functionality be ported to the windows version? (Functionality is already present in the windows version, according to con so it seems to be a bug)
