DataFolderHere.ini


For backward compatibility reasons (Pre Gen.IT 2.7), or possibly when running Gen.IT from a network drive, place a file called 'DataFolderHere.ini' in the same folder as the .exe file. This will ensure Gen.IT primarily looks in the folder where the .exe is located for data files. This will cause the user selected default path setting to be ignored and disabled.
