Error: The configuration area at 'path' is not writeable. Please choose a writeable location..

...using the '-configuration' command line option.

Can somebody explain me exactly how to enter this command line? I suppose I need to navigate in DOS to the correct executable location, then type the name of the executable followed by '-configuration' then enter the new path? Thanks

For workbench configuration changes, edit the "workbench.ini" file and add the -Duser.home=<path working dir>.

I need to change the path where the workbench data is written. It's pointing to a network location that no longer exist. It seems from the error message that a command must be entered like probably:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe Experience Manager Forms Workbench\workbench\workbench.exe /configuration (then the new path??).

Hi,

I understand your problem, but I still don't know at what point you get this message. Can you elaborate?
