I have TMG version 8.06. I have just changed my computers from Windows XP to Windows7.
In Windows XP the path for my external exhibit folders was:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\a new genealogy\A ancestor photos photos 4-26-12\ Windows 7 does not have a folder named "All Users" so I have frowny faces for all my exhibits. I copy pasted this folder : "...a new genealogy\A ancestor photos photos 4-26-12\" into a the TMG EXHIBITS folder. I changed PREFERENCES > EXHIBITS to the new folder. Then: I selected MAINTENANCE > VALIDATE FILE INTEGRITY. In VFI I selected SPECIFY THE FOLDERS TO SEARCH & SEARCH FOR MISSING EXTERNAL EXHIBITS. PROGRESS starts and reads "Validate File Integrity - Checking physical file integrity. . ." That progress hasn't changed from "1% completed" over several hours. Am I missing something?
I "think" I followed instructions in this post for changing folders but it may not be relevant to what I am attempting. Thanks for help.
