Delete 'Save To' location without resetting FDM? 4m5i6x
I wish to remove some locations from FDM's Save To pop-up list, but would like to avoid using the reset function if possible. If there is no way to do that, how do I get a prompt that FDM is about to create a new folder with my chosen location (since I deleted that particular folder previously but is still listed among the Save To location choices). As of my current settings, the app just creates it automatically.
I am using FDM Version: 6.15.3.4236 (4731f7d4) on macOS 11.6.4 Big Sur. Thank you in advance for any help I am given.

I guess inside %LOCALAPPDATA%\Softdeluxe\Free Manager\settings.ini file
anyway, would be good if the developers can add an option inside setting to empty that list easily.

Hello,
The only way is to manually edit the database. Find miscData table in it and remove recentFolders entry from this table.

I, too, would like to remove a folder. How do I locate the miscData table? Thanks for any help you can provide.

Pretty cool and easy to use app that will get it done for you - DB-Browser. https://sqlitebrowser.org/dl/
I grabbed the .ZIP (no install) version, x64, extracted it and ran the executable, then opened an Explorer window to
and dragged the db.sqlite file over to the DB.Brower app and et voila - there was miscData ready to be purged.
