Why You Should Keep User Files in NYC’s User Folder
NYC
brings new imports, including those from Quick Web Recipes (easy), into the
folder where the open cookbook resides. Usually this is your User Folder,
which by default resides at:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\FFTS\Nyc5xx\user (where
5xx is version number, e.g., 591 for v5.91)
However, if you have a cookbook open that is not in
the User Folder, the import will go into the open cookbook's folder, not the
User Folder.
Keeping cookbooks outside the User Folder is possible, but it is not
recommended because:
1) File... Backup... only backs up files in your User Folder.
2) File… Upgrade… only brings over files from your previous
version's User Folder; and
3) Recipe search across cookbooks only looks in the open
cookbook’s folder, so if the open cookbook is not in the User Folder, you may
be missing a lot of search hits;
If you want to store your user files in a location other than the default User
Folder location, move the User Folder from within NYC using Tools... Options...
User Folder tab. This way NYC still knows where
your User Folder is located. You can always find where your User Folder is
located using Tools… Options… User Folder.
Previous NYC versions have used different default locations for the User Folders - see this page for details.
