Post From: Documentation update needed: Path for - "Always Use 'Data' Folder Within main Folder"

I am only able to find "Always Use 'Data' Folder Within main Folder" under the path:
Global Setting >> General Settings >> Paths

I found a couple sections that need to update that info as they stop at "Global Setting >> General Settings. [Not a huge deal, just took me a minute to find]

Update Sections:

I found 4 instances that need to be updated in the following sections:

(A) Transferring Sierra Chart Settings and Data From Existing Installation to New Installation

- 10. In the new installation of Sierra Chart, select Global Settings >> General Settings. Enable the Always Use 'Data' Folder within Main Folder option. This will ensure the correct folder is always used.

- Changing Data Files Folder

(B) Updating Existing Installation of Sierra Chart with Files and Settings from Another Installation

- 7. Select Global Settings >> General Settings. Make sure the Always Use 'Data' Folder within Main Folder is enabled. Press OK. If you changed this setting, then reconnect to the data feed.

(C) Simple Transfer/Copy of Sierra Chart Installation to Another Folder or Computer System

- 2. Select Global Settings >> General Settings.

Hope this is useful/desired feedback

Best,

Kurt
