Does anybody know how to change the default sources folder in Netbeans 7.1.2
I’ve looked through the files but can’t seem to locate where the default directory is stored – I have been through the forums but can’t find anything useful..?
currently C:\Users\wayne\Documents\NetBeansProjects\PhpProject7
I have read that if you select a different directory then that becomes the default – this is not the case on my installation
Thanks
If you are using Windows 7 or vista, you are gonna find it here
C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\7.1.2\config\Preferences\org\netbeans\modules\projectui.properties.However if you you are using windowsXP remember the
USERPROFILEenviromental variable is not Users but rather Documents and Settings. Enviromental variables change depending on the operating system you are using. To know whats theUSERPROFILEvariable for yours just open a command prompt window and typeSET USERPROFILE. Or you can simply type%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\$ENTER_YOUR_NETBEANS_VERSION_NUMBER_HERE\config\Preferences\org\netbeans\modules\projectui.propertiesand that will send you to the correct directory.
