I don't see what the big deal is with where you store your completed embroidery
files that you are going to send to your Amaya. There is nothing that I can
find that says you HAVE to use the Designs folder that DesignShop creates for
saving files for anything. I look at it this way, It is my computer, I will put
the files where I choose to. In my case, I run a networked operation. I have my
sewing shop in the far corners of the basement of my house. In that room there
is two Amaya machines 1 computer and all supporting hardware and accessories.
That computer has Amaya OS loaded on it. My computer I use for DesignShop is on
the 1st floor where I can see the light of day. I have a hybrid network
(Windows/Macintosh) and use that network to transfer completed sew files from
the DesignShop computer to a file system created on a secondary hard drive
inside the computer that runs the sewing machines. I have ALL of my pattern
files on that hard drive and they are backed up Monthly to
DVD-ROM. I make two copies each time I back them up for safety. I use an iMac
Dual Core 3.06 GHz 24 inch computer for doing my backups (and yes, they are
still usable when and if I have to restore them on the Windows computer). This
backup is also accomplished via the network.
I don't think I have looked in the C:/Designs folder since 2004 for any designs
I think I might want. I used some of them as examples when I first got started
with commercial embroidery for a few months to practice with.
Bottom Line: Put the files where you can access them and load them into the
Amaya. If you do use the C:/Designs folder, back it up regularly or you might
lose it.
Just my opinion, take it for what it is worth.
