Difficulty changing the directory to save cabinets
I always set up my own folders for saving work so that I can include them in auto backup processes. The problem is that whenever I get a new computer and copy files over I have a hard time redirecting Ecabs to those folders. I go into Edit/Settings/Preferences and change the path, but when I go to save a cabinet it does not go to that path. Clicking the Browse button does not give me a complete directory of my computer or even of the path that I have set. The Help manual says that you can type over the directory name but it won't let you use characters like : or \ so I don't know how you can type in a directory. Attached is an example of what I get when I hit the browse button. Thanks for any help.

Re: Difficulty changing the directory to save cabinets
Mark,
In the Item Window on the right, for the cabinets that are shown there, click the little down arrow below the cabinet image and choose Explore. What is the file path for the location that gets opened? Try one of your folders instead of the Standard folder.
And the location you are pointing it to in Settings/Preferences, is it set to OneDrive or another cloud service, or a network location?
