    NOTE: While you are free to choose the location to which Fantasy Grounds installs, please make sure it has its own \Fantasy Grounds\ folder to hold its installed application files. Upon uninstall, this folder and everything in it will also be removed. We do not recommend using common shared spaces such as Desktop or My Documents for installation locations.

  3. Choose a path where your data files will be stored. This will require the most storage space.

Info

Choosing a Location for your Data Directory
Fantasy Grounds Classic (FGC) users will want to pick a different path for Fantasy Grounds Unity (FGU). While FGU will be able to read and use FGC files, this does not work the other direction. Changes made in FGU may break these files for FGC. For this reason, we highly recommend keeping two separate paths and storing these separately from each other.
