Can you change default folder location

[checkyourmirrors]

Does anyone know if you can change the location of the Air Manager folder where panels, instruments, etc are stored? I've like to keep them in a OneDrive folder so I can access them for development on my non-Gaming computer, plus it would be nice to have a backup of them as well.

That's a fixed location. With Google Drive and Dropbox you can choose to backup certain folders, isn't that the case with OneDrive? Note that the license file is in there as well, so you would have to make an exception for that. Or else you'll need to constantly activate both applications.

You can always create a symlink, where you create shortcut-like folders to a folder that is physically elsewhere.
Here Air Manager would still think its default folders are at their original location.

To do that on Windows, you can do it using the command shell (Google for the mklink command), or a symlink shell extension that will add a set of specific commands in the right-click menu

Hi Jackz,
Not sure if this will work with Google drive - (Dont have dropbox to try)

I use Symbolic Links all the time - you NEED to use them with ORBX if you are doing any folder changing.....
I also use the same program - HardLinkShellExt_X64.exe.

I can certainly use Symbolic links on the PC, but I would be grateful for info on how to use them on G-Drive etc ?
