How to prevent the creation of a Bluetooth Exchange Folder in My Docum

[nikolaev]

Despite the attached settings, a Bluetooth Exchange Folder is still created in My Documents. How can I make the software create it elsewhere?

Have you tried clicking on the "Allow remote devices to browse, send, and receive pictures, music, and other files." and then clicking on Browse >>> and choosing the desired folder/location?

Thanks for the response. I have tried setting the location to the one I want but the software ignores my setting and unchecks "Allow remote devices to browse, send, and receive pictures, music, and other files" when the system restarts.

Have a read through this link.

thanks again but unfortunately my software doesn't do what this link says it should; i.e. changing the Exchange Folder location is ignored

Ummm okay. I might need some details like:

• How many user accounts do you have?
• Does your user account have administrative rights?
• Do you have any other bluetooth software installed on the system?

• Do you have any other bluetooth software installed on the system? I have BlueSoleil 1.6.1.4 release 050606 and Widcomm BTW 3.0

How about you uninstall and reinstall the BT software then try again?
