Create Option for Default File Location for Project

[goddi]

Greetings,

A bit over 2 years ago, I posted this suggestion but it has not been added yet. See: https://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/topic/18427-create-default-choice-for-folder-that-displays-in-the-file-list/?tab=comments#comment-122720

It  has been mentioned before that the 'golden rule' when creating PTE projects is to put all files used in the project in the  same folder. It would be most helpful, for  those who follow this 'rule', to be able to input a default file location of the project when we initially start a project, usually the location of the PTE file. Many times when you go back to an old project, the File List, for  example, does not populate with the files used when the project was created. You have to hunt for the location and reestablish it. When you try to 'Add Music', it shows an unrelated folder and you have to hunt for the working folder again that would contain the  audio files for the project. Same with 'Save As'. It might not go to the original location. This happens very often with Open Recent Files.

The PTE file already contains the 'ProjectFilePath=...' which is where the PTE file resides and is the 'Golden Rule' location. If PTE can let users input this path for the default location for all files for a project, it would be very helpful. As I have mentioned before, you can set a default folder location with Excel and Word, why not do it for each project with PTE?
