How to Change the Shared Configuration Folder Path
Who is this article for?
Ideagen Mail Manager Administrators that need to change the path of the Shared Configuration Folder
IT knowledge & access required.
The following procedure is used to update the Shared Configuration Folder path on the Mail Manager Installer which can then be used on users PC's. This may be required when the server currently hosting the shared configuration folder is going to be decommissioned or if the folder containing the Shared Configuration Folder has been moved. This also may be required if the Mail Manager installer was not originally configured correctly and needs to be updated.
Notes:
- This article only applies to the self service per-user installer
- This article assumes that there are no changes required to the Collections, Filing Location and Preferences
- This article is not used for directly updating the Shared Config Folder path on a single users machine which is something that would be done via the User Preferences where relevant. Accessing user preferences settings – Ideagen Mail Manager | Help | Ideagen Luminate
