Data Files Location

#1 Postby steveshutts » Wed Apr 18, 2007 3:31 am

I have loaded Forex Tester onto my C Drive along with all my other programs. The data folder is also located here but once i have loaded all my required tick data into this area, it will be using quite a lot of disk space. I would really like to specify another area on another drive for this information but still keep the application itself where it is. Is this possible?
If not, must i reinstall Forext Tester on another drive? I don't want to clog up all my C Drive space with data files.

You should reinstall the program, at this moment you can not change data folder location.
