# Folder Settings

Top Previous Next

Folder Settings specify the location that FileLocator Pro stores its configuration, log, favorites, and temporary files.

The default locations are:

$(ApplicationData)\logs\

$(ApplicationData)\config\

$(ApplicationData)\Favorites\

$(TempFolder)\

The $(ApplicationData) macro evaluates to the ApplicationData folder defined by Windows. On Windows 7 this is commonly:

C:\Users\<id>\AppData\Roaming\Mythicsoft\FileLocatorPro

Other macros available include $(FileLocatorProFolder) or $(InstallFolder) which evaluates to the installation location of FileLocator Pro, e.g.

C:\Program Files\Mythicsoft\FileLocator Pro

This can be very useful when installing FileLocator Pro to a USB drive so that all configuration information is kept on the USB drive and not stored in the computer.

The information changed in this dialog is stored in the master.xml file located in the root of the FileLocator Pro installation folder.

$(TempFolder) evaluates to the default temp folder for the user.
