Default save location

Post by Daiwei »

HI,

I've loaded Alive on a new notebook (MSI GE70). This notebook has a small SSD (64G) with the OS installed on it and I wish to keep as little other data on it as possible. I've loaded Alive onto the secondary drive and set the default save location in Windows 8 to a library set up on the secondary drive:- My Documents (D:\Users\Darren). Alive still creates an Alive Sessions file in :- My Documents (C:\Users\Darren) however. Is there a way I can change this in Alive?

Regards
Darren

Hi Darren,

Alive is not hard coded to save on the C drive, but rather saves to wherever Windows tells Alive your "My Documents" or "Documents" directory is.

I have not personally tested this, as I use Windows 7, but here is a link to changing your Windows 8 documents folder:
