Setting file locations

Corel PaintShop Pro resources include such items as scripts, picture tubes, patterns, gradients, displacement maps, and workspaces. The full listing of resources is displayed along the left side of the File Locations dialog box. Corel PaintShop Pro saves and searches for resources in several default folders on your computer. By changing File Locations preferences, you can change where Corel PaintShop Pro looks for and saves these resources. You can also control how plug-ins are used and which Web browsers are used to preview your images.

By default, all new files you create are saved in the appropriate subfolder in the ...Documents\Corel PaintShop Pro\17.0 folder. Most default program resources are stored in the appropriate folder in the path X:\Program Files(x86)\Corel\Corel PaintShop Pro X7 for 32-bit and X:\Program Files\Corel\Corel PaintShop Pro X7 (64-bit) for 64-bit, where "X" indicates the drive on which Corel PaintShop Pro is installed.

You can add or delete folders for Corel PaintShop Pro to store and retrieve the various resources. Deleting a folder means that Corel PaintShop Pro no longer looks in the folder for any items. The folder, however, is not deleted from your computer.

You can also change the file location for specific resources.
