Configuring FileStore settings

The FileStore option helps you to save disk space on system (C:) drive.

The configurable FileStore feature helps the user to save disk space on the System Hard Disk. The default

file location for the FileStore is C:\Users\<User Name>\AppData\Local\RepositoryManager

system.

This feature allows you to move the FileStore folder from the default drive to another location in the

same drive, another drive, or another system on the network.
