Changing folder WYSIWYG Web Builder to external drive

Post by peter30 »

Hi Pablo!

Just wondered:

Want to change having the folder WYSIWYG Web Builder with Backups, Images and System which now is in
Documents (preset by WYSIWYG Web Builder) - to an external drive.

In WYSIWYG Web Builder in Options in Files & Folders it says:

System Folder (Use with caution!)
C:\Users\pck\Documents\WYSIWYG Web Builder

and in Options in folder Backup it says:
C:\Users\pck\Documents\WYSIWYG Web Builder

I'm sure we make a complete copy of the WYSIWYG Web Builder in Documents to
the external harddrive f.ex: (F:) WYSIWYG Web Builder

Do we also point/change both paths

C:\Users\pck\Documents\WYSIWYG Web Builder (in Options in Files & Folders)
and
C:\Users\pck\Documents\WYSIWYG Web Builder (in Options in Backup)

to the new place/path on the external harddrive f.ex like this?

(F:) WYSIWYG Web Builder (in Options in Files & Folders)
and
(F:) WYSIWYG Web Builder (in Options in Backup)

Thanks for a great software and we're buying the new WYSIWYG Web Builder 15 as always. Looks so good!!!
Thanks Pablo - you're fantastic!!!

1: Copy all files from the old system folder to the new location
2. Change the path in the options.

Yes, if you moved all files then both path must be changed.

Pablo,

Do we need to change the path in Options - File & Folders where it says in highlighted grey:

Preview folder (for advanced users only!)
C:\Users\pc\AppData\Local\Temp\preview

Best from
