Changing the default location of Studio 2022 folder from C to D

How to change default location of project folder from C:\Users\User Name \Documents to another folder like D:\Studio 2022?

I migrated it manually to that folder which I created on D disk and I removed the old folder from Documents but Trados insisted on adding files to the old place C:\Users\User Name \Documents after creating its folder again. So I uninstalled it and installed it but I couldn't see any setting related to changing the Trados main folder location. All I can see is File/Setup/Locations but this is only downloading path for cloud projects.

  • Hello, I have the same problem. I installe 3 days ago Studio 2022 on an iMac Pro (Windows 10/Parallels Desktop) and found out that the 2022 folder  was created on the Home on Mac disk instead of the Windows C disk. As a result I am continousely getting errors when trying to create a project or update the Main TM: "database disk is malformed".

    I tried to move the "Studio 2022 folder" (containing the folders: Auto Save, Project Templates, Projects and Translation Memories) from the Mac Home disk to the C:users\user\documents but every time I restart Windows  the system keeps recreating the "Studio 2022" folder on the Mac Home disk. 

    Is there already a solution for this issue?

    Kind regards,
