Note: Some data folders will only be created when the software is opened for the first time after restarting your system.
Remember, assets you create are preserved from installation to installation, whether installing a new version of EmbroideryStudio or a software update. However, if you want to install your software to a new computer, you will need to manually copy your custom assets to the new installation.
Note: The C:\ProgramData folder may be hidden on some PCs depending on the permissions of the user who is logged in. See Showing hidden folders for details.
