I created a new Folder in DropBox to point the My Data Folder in Preferences to: but have to have C:\Users\Larry\ in the path instead of a simple path like C:\DropBox\ New Data Folder Location. As soon as C:\Users\Larry\ is altered the path becomes invalid. Really don't want the new folder in C:\Users\Larry\ but seem to have no choice. Hmmm... Better get some work done and tackle this later. Did you try copying the Data Folder to the Dropbox Folder manually 1st while Chief is Closed.... Is Dropbox at C:\Dropbox though? I thought it installed by default to the User's Folder as you mention. Mine is on E:\Dropbox as I didn't want it on my SSD and Chief lets me redirect there with no issues...just tested.... though that is not MY SOP as mentioned yesterday.... Dropbox is backup for me not my Primary Folder.... maybe I am confused ...are you putting the DATA folder on DB or your Whole My Docs Folder? gotta go too.... M.

Thanks for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry was trying/hoping to change the File>Templates>Save As Template or New from Template default location , which it seems can't be done. Generally though that would be the same directory as the New Plan File Location I'd think though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
