Hi, An easy way to check is to:
Run Amibroker Switch to Charts tab Expand Custom folder Right click and select Edit for any file that you want to locate >From Amibroker editor, click File menu and Save As menu item Now you can see exactly where that file currently resides via the Windows save dialog. Cancel out of the save dialog to leave things unchanged.
