Changing route path for RW Tools

Unread postby pkz19 » Sun Feb 14, 2021 9:39 am

Last year TS started crashing every time I tried to run it, which based on the error messages made me assume I had too much content for it to handle. I moved the entire folder to an external hard drive and reinstalled it cleanly, and it has since worked fine. I've migrated repaints over since then, but I want to start again on some small routes I had been working on. Unfortunately, the way TS names route folders makes it very difficult to figure out what is what. I know RW Tools can do that, but my RW Tools will only look at the folder on my computer's internal hard drive. Is there a way to change its route path to look at my external hard drive?

Click on options. One of the choices is path to TS2020. That's it.

Thanks Buzz, but when I tried that and selected the RW folder on my external drive, I got "Error 76: Path not found" when I tried to use the Check Routes or Scenarios function?

It must have something to do with the setup on your external drive. I do it all the time here looking for archived stuff on my external backup drive. E-mail Mike or post over on his thread. He usually checks in there regularly.
