I have a secondary hard drive along side my main "C" SSD drive. I would like to point the EZScan audio export to the secondary hard drive. It defaults to the C://My Documents folder and I don't see anywhere where I can change it to the "D" secondary hard drive. There is a TRX-1.ini file but there is no line in that file that refers to where the audio files are downloaded to. Anyone have any info?
Thank You, Bob

mount the secondary drive as an NTFS mount point, instead of as a separate drive letter. It will appear that the drive is mounted in the C filesystem tree to the users and the programs, but it will physically be on separate hardware. Then move your "my Documents" on to it.

data is a separate drive mounted as an NTFS mount point. Currently the users documents, downloads and desktops all reside on that. Programs unaware, users unaware. Small fast SSD for system drive, huge honking spinng platters for data.

Not familiar with EZ-Scan, but this is an alternative should you not be easily able to redirect the output.

So after the data folder is showing, you just move your "C" drive users documents, downloads and desktops folders into there? In other words, how does the EZScan program know that the documents folder is now "C"/data/documents now. The data folder now shows the secondary files and folders, but the EZScan program still points to the C:/users document folder, not the one in the secondary hard drive.

Sorry I couldn't help directly in a EZScan related way, but many times I have found you need to look around the problem and not at it.
