shadowmoses 16 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Previously, I had Evernote installed on my F: Drive (an SSD) with my local files continuing to being stored on my C Drive. When attempting to add an import folder from the F: drive, I am able to select the desired folder from the Browse window, but reopening the Import Folders dialog box would show that Evernote had set the drive location to the C Drive. This happens whether I select a folder from the F drive or manually change the letter "C" to the letter "F" after such changes have already occurred. In response to this, I decided to move my local files onto my F: drive, which is something I had been planning to do anyway. However, even upon reloading Evernote, my import folders continue to default to the C Drive. Any thoughts on how I could fix this? Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,589 Posted August 24, 2018 Level 5* Share Posted August 24, 2018 I have an import folder on an SSD drive, and it's remained there after many installs -- I am on the beta track, so I tend to get updates on a monthly (or thereabouts) cadence, and I haven't changed my import folder in a couple of years or more.. My SSD drive is permanently attached, so I also tested out putting on a USB drive as well. It seems to be working as well, even after shutting down Evernote and restarting. Weird... Link to comment
shadowmoses 16 Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 Thought I'd provide a quick update. After going back and forth with support for the last several weeks, it seems they are as stumped as I am, as none of their solutions has resolved this issue. Ultimately, they recommended that I move my database folder back to the C drive, although I would prefer not to have to do this for a number of reasons. One interesting thing to note is that an Import Folder set up on my external H: drive worked just fine; it's only with the F: drive that this issue is present. Granted, I'm not sure this observation would bring me closer to any sort of potential solution. At this point, I might be content with setting up Import Folders on my H: drive and manually moving content into them from their mirrors on my F: drive. It'd be an extra step of work, but wouldn't be the end of the world either. Link to comment
