Custom download folder deprecated !!! ???

Hi guys,

 

I got welcomed by this while downloading the update this morning.

 

Why removing such an awesome feature?! Now if your SSD drive barely hold the size of DCS, then you won't be able to update no more.

 

That thing was working great! You could download the huge torrent to another disk, and simply overwrite the DCS folder after download.

 

Am I missing something? Did they simply killed that thing or there is another way to do this?

Hi Frag

 

Some users had accidents with it by using OS root folders and so on, so it was removed.

 

You can still use symbolic links via windows however, but that is for individuals to setup.

 

thanks

As BN says, I have set up a symbolic link and download quite happily to another disk.
