Fiddler For Linux file permissions (listeningProcess.txt, ...)

There are some Files, fiddler needs write privileges:

rm: cannot remove '/opt/fiddler/listeningProcess.txt': Permission denied
rm: cannot remove '/opt/fiddler/gsettings.txt': Permission denied
rm: cannot remove '/opt/fiddler/proxiesFromInterfaces.txt': Permission denied
...

If this file is stored with the exe file, it is not possible to install fiddler in /bin or /opt and run without root privileges.

I think it would be good to locate that file in the users home folder or in /tmp.

Ok, I found the fix.

There was no write access on Fiddler directory. :P

I simply provide write access using (maybe 777 <fiddler-dir> -R if you don't mind).

I tried running it from home. Still giving the error.
