Is there a way to have templates stored in a custom location?
I set my custom path in OPTIONS - DIRECTORIES - TEMPLATES.
I created a file and did Save as Template and saved to this Templates directory. Close, reopen Primalscript.
FILE - NEW - no templates.
If I save the template to C:\ProgramData\SAPIEN\PrimalScript 2020\Templates\File Templates
that works fine, it appears , but for our devices C drive is considered disposable so I'd prefer to have the templates on either my D drive or network drive so if the PC is reimaged I don't lose them. I'm sure this used to work in previous versions of Primalscript. Has something changed or is it just me?

Re: Templates-Custom Location
Nothing in regards to templates has changed in some time. I will ask QA to look into it, please stand by.

Re: Templates-Custom Location
Set your custom folder to something like D:\PrimalScript\Templates.
Replicate the files and folder structure under "C:\ProgramData\SAPIEN\PrimalScript 2020\Templates" there. Copying all files and folders would do.
Now customize your templates on your network folder as needed.
The other prescribed way of using custom templates is to leave the installed templates alone. They will be updated when you update the software, so you do not miss changes and/or additions.
Place your custom templates in
<User profile>\AppData\Roaming\SAPIEN\User Templates
Normally that is something like "C:\Users\Alex\AppData\Roaming\SAPIEN\User Templates"
but if your C: drive is considered disposable, chances are your user appdata folder is redirected to a network location.
