Name>\AppData\Local\RepositoryManager\FileStore.

3. If you choose to save the file store to a new location, ensure that:

– The destination folder is blank.

– The destination folder is not the same as the source folder.

– You have write permission on the destination folder.

– One of the parent folders is not in use as a FileStore.

NOTE: Ensure that there are no running or queued jobs in the Jobs Queue. While moving the FileStore, DRM

will not be able to perform any other operations.
