hi bert,

adding this to the ini file:
[Security]
UserDirectory=3DC:\botsFiles

For squeak3.9 it does offer me and make an etoy it does offer me my
designated C:\botsFiles folder as an option which I can choose. It also
automatically sets up a Squeaklets folder as a subdirectory and then if I
click the save button will save to both folders

My problem is with bots when trying to save the scripts only to a designated
folder

bot workspace context menu > save contents

I can't get it to save automatically to the designated folder - I have to
type in the path
eg. C:\botsFiles\square

Changing the ini file doesn't help for this case

I tried dropping in later versions of the VM into the bots folder but that
didn't work either
