Could you please let us know what build of dbForge Studio for MySQL you are using and what actually happens after you change the default snippet folder and restart dbForge Studio for MySQL?

Also, could you please describe the steps to reproduce the issue step by step?

It's stored in the 'DirectoryPath' value located in the following registry branch:

Code: Select all

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Devart\dbForge Studio for MySQL\CodeSnippets\MySql

if somebody is interested, here“s my little workarround:

create a batch:

Code: Select all

REGEDIT.EXE /S set_snippets.reg
Start "" "`C:\Program Files\Devart\dbForge Studio for MySQL\dbforgemysql.exe"
set_snippets.reg

Code: Select all

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Devart\dbForge Studio for MySQL\CodeSnippets\MySql]
"DirectoryPath"="F:\\MySnippetFolder"
