    Workspace - I can’t save project to external hard drive since v6

    by lego_man » Mon Aug 04, 2025 12:08 pm

    Hi,
    Since updating to MadMapper 6, I’m no longer able to save projects directly to my external hard drive.
    Every time I try, I get this message:
    “Your project has to be saved in its Workspace. Use Export Project… to get your project and attached resources in a new Project Folder.”

    I used to save my projects directly to an external drive without any issues in previous versions.


    Thanks for your help!

    I understand the confusion. The idea is: MadMapper project file now must be saved in its project folder. If you want to move your project to another drive, you have to move the project folder. You can do it manually from file browser. Or you can use MadMapper / File / Export Project to to save it to another location (it will make a new project folder with all required dependencies: library resources - materials,fx etc. - audio / movie files if necessary).
