I am using two laptops both running Win 10. Xiphos is installed on both
(4.1.0) and the structure of the Sword folder looks the same. So, I
thought I could just copy the "Personal" folder from one to the other.
The copied folder ("target") would not be read by Xiphos on the second
computer. (I checked and the folder would be written to on the second
computer, but it would not read the files that were copied there, even
when I copied the entire folder from the source computer.)I even tried
copying the entire Sword folder over and Xiphos would work, but it would
not read the info in the copied Personal folder.
Is there a setting somewhere or somehow to assign an arbitrary path for
Personal--like is done for StudyPad. (I would actually like to be able
to point Personal to a location on my Gdrive so it could really be
shared between my two laptops.
Thanks.
I'm not sure whether Windows 10 supports a Linux-like soft link, although
it appears maybe it does?[1] If so, you can add it to your gdrive or
dropbox and add a symbolic link, no problem.
Good luck!
