The File Storage directory is used by Approval Manager (Proofer Part of Workgroups) and contains all versions of proof files uploaded to the system. Because it can contain a large amount of files that take up a large amount of hard drive space, we recommend that you change the location of the File Storage directory.
โ€‹
To move the location of the File Storage directory perform the following steps:
โ€‹

  • find proof directory. location is in Server Configurator under Configure -> Workgroups Portal

  • Set your new location using the Choose button (directories below will automatically created)

Above Example has the File Storage on the the D Drive -> in a folder named Proof Files -> Environment identifier(Live)

  • Hit next until configuration is finished.

  • Copy the files and appearance folder to the new File Storage location (replacing the automatically created ones in the new location). There should be a appearance folder and files folder. If you see the database name you need to go down a level.

  • Once copy is finished, proof files will be accessible from the Portal/Proofer
