Temporary folder tab:

Set a location to adjust memoQ to your way of using a temporary folder.

Use custom temporary folder check box and Location text box: By default, memoQ uses the system-level Temp folder to create temporary files, e.g. when creating online projects. This might result in path names that are too long for Windows to handle. If you check this check box, and specify a folder in the Location box, you can instruct memoQ to use a temporary folder other than the system default.

 

Note: As memoQ does not support network folders, please store all the above information on local drives. You can use remote resources only in a memoQ server.
