Preparing V5.3.44 to migrate to V6. What folder should I specify in "Default folder with work files"?

Hello, I'm trying to prepare V5.3.44 in order to migrate to version 6.

1. I open Settings.

2. I click on the 'Files and folders' tab.

3. I look at the 'Migration to version 6!' section. Everything seems fine, so I click on 'Prepare migration to V6'. A box appears asking me to check that I have backed up my database, etc. I click on 'Yes' to continue.

4. A window appears stating "Base folder for storing files is not provided. Please specify value in the 'Default folder with work files' field." I click on OK.

5. I try entering different folders (e.g. a folder on my Desktop, in My documents, in my BaccS back-up folder, etc.), and the message in point 4 above always appears.

Any help would be much appreciated. Is there a 'correct' folder to specify?

Many thanks!

Martin

Trados Studio settings window with 'Files and folders' tab open, showing empty 'Default folder with work files' field highlighted in red.
