The user folder is where the system stores and looks for the following types of files.
There are 2 categories of user files. User files that are language independent
should be placed in the root of the User Folder. User files that are language
dependent should be placed in a language sub-folder that corresponds to the
language that LISCAD is configured for. The 2 character sub-folder name should
correspond with the ISO 2 letter country codes.
E.g. English (UK) should be in the "uk" sub-folder, English (US) should be in
the "us" sub-folder, Spanish should be in the "es" sub-folder etc.
The User Folder must always be set to the language independent User Folder root, not the language dependent sub-folder.
Note: If you change the User Folder location, you must ensure that all User Folder files and sub folders are copied to the new User Folder location.
