Default Location
Remote Desktop Manager saves its configuration in a file named RemoteDesktopManager.cfg. This file contains most of the application settings.
Options - Advanced
The configuration file can be located in different folders depending on certain conditions:
Installed under "Program Files" or "Program Files [x86]" | %LocalAppData%\Devolutions\RemoteDesktopManager |
Application running on Terminal Server | %AppData%\Devolutions\RemoteDesktopManager. This is the roaming profile and avoids multi-user conflicts. |
Other | Installation folder |
Override the Default Path
There are two ways to change the folder where the configuration file is stored:
1. Create a file named "Override.cfg" in the application folder. Remote Desktop Manager opens this file and reads the first line. It should contain the desired installation folder [without the file name]. If you wish to use the current installation path, put a period in the file. Here are a few examples:
c:\RDM | The config file is saved in the designated folder. |
. | The period is used to specify the Remote Desktop Manager installation folder. |
%AppData%\Devolutions\RemoteDesktopManager | Specify the application roaming data folder. |
2. By adding a key in the registry: CurrentUser\SOFTWARE\RemoteDesktopManager, OptionPath. Set the desired path in the key OptionPath. You must not include the file name in the value, just the path.
