You're on the right track.  Your 'C:\Newfolder' idea would work just fine. 
What I usually do is make a folder within my app, something like 
..\source_data\concepts\authority_files, and place all of my authority 
files in there.  Then, I use the CONCEPT_SCHEME_LOCATIONS variable in 
settings.py to point to this directory.  That way, every time my app is 
reinstalled, all of my custom authority files are loaded at once. 
 Altrenatively, you could leave the CONCEPT_SCHEME_LOCATIONS variable 
empty, and manually load the concepts from Newfolder whenever you like.

Keep in mind that the authority files are *only* used for loading the 
concepts. Once they have been loaded, all concept management happens in the 
RDM.  The RDM is also where you should go to check that your files loaded 
correctly, just go to the parent concepts and dropdown menus and make sure 
that the modifications you have made are reflected.

Hope that helps you!
