Hi! Because of setting up a new computer I had to change the name of my main data folder. Apart from the name the location and content remained the same. I set up an new search aimed at the new folder, but FFS keeps reverting the search criteria to the old file name, and changes the backup location back to the old name. This makes FFS useless.
I uninstalled FFS and reloaded it, but despite deleting all the residual files I could locate, it still reverts.
Somewhere there must be a hidden history or location cache that I can't find. Does anyone have any ideas? I really like FFS and it would be a pity to have to look for a replacement app.

All locations are configured in the sync's configuration settings. You can also click 'new' in the top-left to start from scratch as well

Some (default) settings are in Tools | Options.
I'll assume you're loading a (pre)existing .ffs_batch?
After you make changes, you'll need to re-save it (to have it reflect the new folder names).
(But then, if it is that, it should prompt you, no?)
