Client: Changing the temporary directory

Last update: 30 October 2019 (cf)

Summary

Since Fabasoft Folio Version 2013 Winter Update Rollup 1 it is possible to modify the directory of temporary files created when opening a file in Fabasoft Folio. In order to change this directory a registry key must be set.

Please consider that these changes apply per user only.

Instructions

Follow these steps to accomplish this modification:

• Open the registry editor.
• Navigate to the following registry key:
  Folio 2013 - Folio 2015: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Fabasoft\WebClient\BaseSettings\Enterprise
  Folio 2016 and above: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Fabasoft\WebClient\ConfigValues\Enterprise 16 (for Folio versions after 2016, replace 16 by the version number, e.g. for Folio 2017 use 17 , ...)
• Create a key named DocDir if it does not exist yet.
• Select the DocDir key and set the default value to the desired directory.

You may also use a registry (.reg) file to create the key as well as set the default value for you. In the given example below the temporary directory is set to "C:\Temp".

Fabasoft Folio 2013-2015

       Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Fabasoft\WebClient\BaseSettings\Enterprise\DocDir]

"@"="C:\\Temp"

Fabasoft Folio 2016 and above

       Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Fabasoft\WebClient\ConfigValues\Enterprise16\DocDir]

"@"="C:\\Temp"

After changing the temporary directory, the Folio Client needs to be restarted.
