JKEdmo Posted January 28, 2024 Share Posted January 28, 2024 Question towards Windows 11 PC Users: A lot of my Chief program paths are directed toward my OneDrive\Documents folder. The OneDrive folder is a special Microsoft folder used for syncing your PC to the cloud. I turned this off on my PC because I found it problematic, but I guess Chief is still trying to use it. I would like to repath the Chief program paths to my regular local Documents folder. Is this doable and how? Thanks again for your help.

Is this doable and how? Chief has a KB Article on how to move Chief off Cloud Services, personally I have moved Chief to C\:Chief Architect as OneDrive keeps messing up my Backups etc, as well as slowing Chief down ( it seems to me despite 1GB internet ) and if, as in my case, OneDrive AUTO re-ables itself after a Windows Update everything in Documents gets MOVED back to the OneDrive folder again. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-03132/resolving-unexpected-behavior-on-a-windows-pc-by-redirecting-the-data-folder.html M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like just the ticket for me. I'll dive into it tomorrow. I was getting a lot of material texture not found error messages and I suspect it might have to do with the OneDrive pathing. So, I hope this will be the fix. In general, I am pretty happy with Windows 11. The big exception being the One Drive integration. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and Me both , though I am beginning to hate Outlook as well , it's been driving me nuts for 6mths now .... I hate how these big company's try to take control of everything like every computer user is a Computer User neophyte and is as dumb as a bang of hammers.... Mick.
