Changing path to backup storage

By default, backups generated by ECX are stored in:

•Windows: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Elcomsoft\Elcomsoft Cloud eXplorer\Backups (insert your system user name instead of Username).

•macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Elcomsoft/Elcomsoft Cloud eXplorer/Backups

To change the backup storage location, do the following:

1. Go to the ECX directory via the following path:

•Windows: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Elcomsoft\Elcomsoft Cloud eXplorer (insert your system user name instead of Username).

•macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Elcomsoft/Elcomsoft Cloud eXplorer

NOTE: The AppData folder is hidden by default. Please make sure the hidden folders are displayed in your system.

2. Open the settings.ini file in the Elcomsoft Cloud eXplorer folder.

3. In the Backups section, after Path=, replace the existing path with the desired one. Make sure the path you define does not contain any non-Latin characters.

4. Save the file.

5. Close the file and restart ECX to apply the changes.

Once you have changed the path, all the information stored in the previous location is moved to the new one.
