I’ve been messing around with BI and have noticed that my 2nd drive doesn’t appear in the drop down. Can anybody point me to what I am doing wrong or what I need to correct/update please ?

There is something pretty strange or at least something that I don't understand going on.

Had a further play around and have found that no matter what I set the 3rd one down to it doesn't appear in the drop down. So I set the first to now be Disk1-New, the second to Disk2-New and the third to be just Alerts and now Disk1-New and Disk2-New appear but Alerts doesn't.

Is a good guide anywhere where I can see how to configure Alerts and where would I set BI to point it to the Alerts folder as I can't see any way of doing that? I'm wondering if it's hard coded to expect the Alerts folder to always be the 3rd on down and with me re-jigging things I got the behaviour that I saw?

Alerts should go on the C drive.
Read the BI help file, it discuss's that you can't change the first 3 directories from default names.

Just had a read of the help file and it has

“The Alerts folder must remain 3rd on the list.”

So that answers that query.

It's silly that you can even rename it in the first place hah

I think this must be the result of evolution? I’m a newbie to BI but my guess is the names were fixed and then the option to change later introduced?
