Intuit Profile Tax. 2023T1

Files being created in Employees G Drive

all profile data is set to c:\users\username\documents\my profile data

Saving a new form is set to the above location

Why is it being created also in a seperate location on the G Drive?

Profile will save the file in the directory  location  that you choose when you save the file the first time. 

 

However, if the directory is not locked (in the menu Option Environment File) when you save the file , and you are saving the file to a different location than the one setbvin Option- Environment- File, then the directory in option - environment - File, will be updated to the new location that you saved the file. 

 

If the directory is locked, then the directory in Option - Environment - File will not be modified  and next time you save a new file it will save to that directory.

Question.....

 What do I do with the folders that were created seperately on the other drive? Do I moved them to the original spot?

if you want to have all your thing in the same location, you should set  everthing on the same drive, otherwise, you will need to navigate the drive to get your files
