Removing Gadgets

Post by gkas »

I opened the folder "C:\ProgramData\Vectric\Aspire\V10.5" with Open Application Data Folder. I have more gadgets than are in either the "V10.0/Gadgets" or "V10.5/Gadgets". Where else are they stored?

Might be:

Code: Select all

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Vectric Files\Gadgets

You are correct. That's it. I wonder why the different storage location than "Application Data Folder"?

The ProgramData area is for gadgets that come with the software like the Keyhole Toolpath and Job Sheet. The Vectric Files area is for 3rd party and optional gadgets. Things like backgrounds, clipart, tutorials etc are also stored in the Vectric Files area.

Items in the ProgramData area can be overwritten during upgrades etc.

OK. That sounds reasonable.

thanks
