Can I change the skins folder location?
Can I change the skins folder location? I want it on my backable drive so it gets backed up regularly.

Yes, you can. Right click the Rainmeter icon in the Notification Area, click Edit settings, then add the desired path to the SkinPath option of the [Rainmeter] section. Finally restart Rainmeter.

Be sure to move the actual Skins folder in-between changing that and restarting Rainmeter.

Thanks, yeah. I actually copied the folders then set it in Rainmeter then closed Rainmeter and reloaded. When I checked it was pointing at the right place - only then I deleted the old folders.
