The temp folder of PDF reDirect is:
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\PDF reDirect\temp

Because our roaming folder (user profile) is redirected to a server and limited to 50MB we have a problem here.

Is it possible to change the temp directory (maybe in Prefs_v2.ini)?

Hi,

Let me take a look at my code to see if there is a way. I'll let you know later today.

Hi,

I had an idea, but it did not work. Currently, I do not have a solution for you. I would need to program something to allow you to specify an alternate location as you suggested.

This might take a while. Are you running PDF redirect Freeware or Pro? If Pro, how many licenses do you have?

Kindest Regards,

This had been bugging us for a long time but I think I have a solution.

Using the "Exclude directories in roaming profile" group policy/"ExcludeProfileDirs" registry key you could tell Windows to not sync the PDF reDirect temp folder to the server.
