Sending changes files

If something goes wrong with the automatic submission of changes files, you can find the files in one of the folders at C:\Users\[yourUserName]\AppData\LocalLow\SimulConsult\SCdata\. However, this location is hidden by default. To make it visible:

  1. In the file browser, click View at top
  2. Click options
  3. Click the View tab
  4. In Files and Folders /Hidden files and folders select “Show the hidden files, folders and drives”
