Manually Moving Files to a New Location

Backups and files created prior to changing a backup or file storage location will not be moved to the new location automatically. If Backup and/or File Storage locations are changed, any files previously stored in the default locations must be moved manually.

To manually move your existing backups and files to a newly designated location:

  1. After the Backup and/or File locations have been changed, close ATX.
  2. Navigate to the ATX 2021 Server. Existing Backup files are stored in the ATX 2021 Backup folder and Data files are located in the ATX 2021 Files folder.

The default location is \ProgramData\Wolters Kluwer\ATX 2021 Server.

  1. Open the ATX 2021 Backup folder or the ATX 2021 Files folder, depending on which files are being moved.

Do not copy/move the entire folder.

  1. Press Ctrl+A to select all files within the open folder, and then press Ctrl+C to copy all selected files.
  2. Browse to the newly designated location and open the ATX 2021 Backup folder or the ATX 2021 Files folder, depending on which files are being moved.
  3. Press Ctrl+V to paste the copied files into the open folder.

Do not copy or remove the DataStore folder from the ATX 2021 Server folder. Doing so will result in undesirable conditions/behavior in ATX.
