  Hi,
  
  I use QAP on several PC's
  
  Unfortunately, one of then has it's user folder labeled :
  

  • C:\Users\S
    

  The others are labeled

  • C:\Users\SE
    

  
  Which makes OneDrive Path have 2 versions

  • C:\Users\S\OneDrive
    
  • C:\Users\SE\OneDrive
    

  I store QAP on onedrive, thus
  [*]C:\Users\S\OneDrive\QAP
  [*]C:\Users\SE\OneDrive\QAP
  
  
  In order to have QAP synced on all PCS I have put these 2 user variables :
  {OneDrive}=C:\Users\S\OneDrive
  {OneDrive}=C:\Users\SE\OneDrive
  
  I hoped it worked, but on the PC with SE as user folder name, QAP wants to create "C:\Users\S\OneDrive"
  
  How can I put these 2 variants of onedrive in user parameters to have the same files on all my computers please ?

  May be you can use one of the system environment variables of OneDrive.
  For me they are defined as follows:
  
  OneDrive=C:\Users\horst\OneDrive
  OneDriveConsumer=C:\Users\horst\OneDrive
  
  Logged on the variables will always point to the correct path.

  Hi,
  
  It is not recommended to have QAP running on two PC with the same settings files on a shared folder. In your case, your two PCs are writing the user variables in the same file, the last change overwriting the previous one. It is a better option to use a Shared menu of type Personal.
