Question: How do I set the default location for my WhizFolder notebook files to a specified location (like c:\notes\)? At present, they are placed in “My Documents” unless I make special effort to move them.
There is nothing like a default location but a starting location. The first time location is controlled by the desktop icon from which you start WhizFolders. If you see the properties of that icon, its location is set up as Documents in Start In box. But you can always change it to another location.
More important, WhizFolders conveniently changes current location to the last file opened or created.
As soon as you open a file from another location, WhizFolders remembers that as the working location for the next File New or Open operations. This is quite convenient once you know how it works. So if you are planning on using a particular location for all your files, change the desktop shortcut, and move all your existing files there so that the working location remains same through out.
Moving your existing files: This needs some explanation so I am answering it in another article, Moving your existing documents.
