Moving projects to a new drive or folder location

If you want to move project folders to a new drive or folder location, there are two easy ways to define the new location for your project.

First, copy or move the project folders that you want to the new drive/folder location.  Then:

Method 1

  1. If you have a save TradeStation workspace with your MultiWalk project, open the workspace and simply change the project path to the new location:
    MultiWalk Project Files/Folders tab with an arrow to the base projects folder field labeled Type in new project path
  2. Save the workspace.  Since you have already copied the project to the new folder location, your data should now be accessible.

Method 2:

  1. Import the MultiWalkSetup.txt file from the NEW location using the Import feature on Settings -> Project Files/Folders
    MultiWalk Project Files/Folders tab with the Import Project Setup button highlighted
  2. Navigate to the NEW project folder and import MultiWalkSetup.txt file
  3. You should see a popup message indicating that the project path has changed:
    Popup message stating the MultiWalk project folder has changed from X:\MultiWalk\Projects to C:\MultiWalk\Projects

Changing Default Project Path

If you want to change the location of all future projects, then set the default MultiWalk Project Folder to a new path:

  1. Open your MultiWalk project or add a new MultiWalk app to the workspace and go to the Settings -> Project Files/Folders screen.
  2. Type the name of the new Project Path you want to use for this and all other projects.
    MultiWalk Project Files/Folders tab with the base projects folder field set to C:\MultiWalk\Projects and highlighted
  3. Click Set Default Folder:
    MultiWalk Default Project Folder section with the Set Default Folder button
  4. You should see a popup message indicating that the default folder has changed:
    Location Changed dialog stating the base project folder changed to C:\MultiWalk\Projects for all future projects
