I primarily use my home desktop PC for designing robots in Solidworks, and my team uses GrabCAD as a way to share files. On my PC I have a 500GB Solid State Drive and a 1 TB Hard Drive as backup. Because I am approaching 500GB storage limit on my SSD, I wanted to use the hard drive as a way to store CAD files for the robots as there are hundreds of them. Currently, I have five or six folders in C:\Users\my_name\Documents\GrabCAD\FRC, the folder I am using to store FRC CAD files. (C:\ is the 500GB SSD). I tried moving them manually to D:\GrabCAD (the 1TB HDD), but when I go back to the GrabCAD workbench desktop app, it simply recreates the folders inside of C:\Users\my_name\Documents\GrabCAD\FRC as seen on the online workbench and updates the files there.
So, how do I change the download location of files when I want to download new files from the online GrabCAD, so that instead of being downloaded to C:\Users\my_name\Documents\GrabCAD\FRC, they go to D:\GrabCAD?
In the grabCAD Workbench app, go to settings and there should be a setting to redirect the default folder. If that’s not clear, I can get screenshots when I get home.
Yep, that worked! Thanks man!
