#Final draft software data file location update
I went along with this, yet the update completely crashed my software, leading me to find alternative options. I also reached a point where my software was working fine, but told that I needed to update it in order to work with my new computer. While I understand the need for updates, I do not understand the frequency and the fact that it would knock out certain features such as the writer collaborating feature (which can now be easily replicated with online websites). This led to several collaborators having a different version of Final Draft that couldn't communicate with each other. While that might sound reasonable, the updates were frequent and always cost substantial amounts of money (for just an update!). Numerous features never worked for reasons that as far as I can tell were due to the compatibility of different software versions. Next, go to the 'View' tab at the top and check the 'Hidden items' checkbox, as shown below: Now you should be able to see the AppData folder in your User folder. The ease of use and the quality of the final document was a true thrill when I was beginning my career. You can view the AppData folder manually by going into your Users folder, which is there in the C drive.
There was an incredible thrill seeing a software that easily and smoothly formatted my words into industry standard screenplays - ESPECIALLY after having done it for quite some time manually in a more commonly used word processor.
This led me to a much more cost-effective alternative that I have been incredibly happy with since. I was unfortunately rubbed the wrong way by the way my script fell apart and being told the only way to save my work was to buy the incredibly expensive, new version of the software. Seeing the scripts and really getting a knack for the craft that brought them to life.
