Missing Exhibit Folder

[John K 0]

I recently had to reinstall Windows on my computer, along with all of my other programs, including TMG. Now, when I start TMG I get the following error message:

 

Exhibit folder "C:\My Documents\The Master Genealogist v7\Exhibits\" was not found. Do you want to use default Exhibit folder? [yes or no]

 

Since I do not use the exhibit feature of TMG, this is only a minor annoyance. (Whether I click yes or no, everything appears to run correctly.) However, I worry that if TMG cannot find this folder (it DOES exist - exactly where TMG says it is looking), perhaps it cannot find something that is more important.

 

Does anyone have any ideas about how I can fix the problem that TMG is having?

The program is simply saying that:

"C:\My Documents\The Master Genealogist v7\Exhibits\"

does not exist.

 

Make sure that the exhibit path in Preferences is set to the default path.

File / Preferences / Current Project Options / Advanced / Exhibits

 

Make sure that all of the Advanced paths are correct while you're at it.

Refer to Help / Data File Storage for help.

Thank you. It turns out I had a second "My Documents" file hidden away that held not only the Exhibits, but several other items as well.
