Changing data path

[dinamite]

Hello and congrats for this software.

I am trying to change the data path following the instructions in help file.
I created the new key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Zhorn\stickies\Path

This is exactly the key and then inside path I put the address of my local onedrive folder on my pc.

I would like to use the same data on all my PCs to sync automatically the notes.

Is this a good way to do this? Because it is not working , every time I start my PC, the path in Stickies is always the default one in appdata....

I thank in advance if someone can help me.

My best regards.

Hi dinamite,

path must NOT to be a subKEY of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Zhorn\stickies but a text VALUE in the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Zhorn\stickies

I did.

What's wrong?

[LaurentG]

The registry value should be "Path" (and not "database"), and its content should be the name of the directory containing the db file, not the db file itself.

Thank you.
I did some experiments to see why it was not working and that was was just the last try.
I will do it later.
I think the problem was "path* then. Because I thought it was just a placeholder.

Sorry for late reply.
It was indeed the name "path" the problem.
Thank you @LaurentG for the help and for pointing out.
Sometimes the most obvious solution is the easiest!
