FH decides to copy project to another place

Post by Johnyeates » 25 Oct 2010 16:50

Hi,
Am I the only FH user that has a problem where FH decides to copy the Project directory to another olace and run from there.
It has happened for a third time today and luckly I realised before modifying anything because the Multimedia that I added over the weekend was not there.
For various reasons I do not keep 'My Family Tree' in the 'My Documents' Directory.
FH had decided to start the project in the 'My documents' folder, the Multimedia was still linked to the original place, but FH had been opening up the wrong copy.

Any ideas anyone.
John

Family Historian never copies the folders any where by it's self.

Have you checked the Folder Location option (more tasks/project list) on the Project window and changed it to your selected location?

I suspect you have not changed the folder, so FH is defaulting back to my Documents.
