I only have a small main drive and wish to store Logos books on an external drive. If this possible? If so, how? Thanks
The most easy way is to do a complete install of Logos on an external SSD (make sure it is NTFS formatted). This solution is not officially supported by Logos (and the possible but more complex separation of program and resources is not supported either), but works without any issues.
You can do this using the steps below. This was discussed on this forum - you can search for "mklink"
Note that the Resources folder is not the only one which potentially takes a lot of space, e.g. the LibraryCatalog and LibraryIndex folders could also use significant space. You can move them using the same method as the Resources folder.
If you want to do a complete install of Logos on an external SSD, you can search this forum for "InstallDirectory", or follow these steps: 1) for clean installation, uninstall previous Logos via Add/Remove Programs, and delete folders %LocalAppData%\Logos %LocalAppData%\Faithlife It is possible to move the installation too, without uninstalling and reinstalling - see e.g.
2) run regedit (Windows+R regedit) 3) inside regedit, create folder (if it does not already exist): HKCU\Software\Logos4 4) inside the HKCU\Software\Logos4 folder, add (or change) string "InstallDirectory" with value "E:\Logos" (or whatever is your desired path for the Logos installation) 5) run Logos installer, and it will install to the new location
That's great. Thank you both for your help.

Not necessary. The Installer has a Custom option which allows you to input the desired location. Using Regedit to change any parameter of an existing installation should be avoided.

I concur. Simply say the installer to install at e.g. G.\ if that's the external drive where you want it to live.
If you are scared about completely uninstalling Logos first, you can install Verbum onto the external drive and see that it works flawlessly, then uninstall Logos on the internal drive when you feel good about it.
That's great thank you. I am happy to do a clean install as I am setting up on a new machine. thanks
I find the "Send to Proclaim" option distracting, how do I hide it from the Right Click Menu?
Is there a way to use a text to establish a chain such that in my bible study notebook, a note as attached to everywhere the text is found. For example, in the Sermon on the Mount the phrase "You have heard that it was said" Recurs several times. I would like to have a note anchored to each verse with the same tag, Oral…
John C Poitier's book, "The Invention of Inspiration . . . " explores the ancient (pre early 3rd century AD) meaning of theopneustia as in 2 Tim. 3:15-17. His conclusion is that the word meant "life giving", perhaps based originally on the creation story (God breathed into the form and it/he became a living person). He…
something changed so that I am unable to hear text to speech on the program that has on one side and ESV Bible on the other. I use the ctrl r to hear it. It works on the Truth for Today but not on the Bible side. I am not sure what changed, to cause that. Please help if possible. God Bless You.
Per the title, I have some discussions like the one pictured 'muted,' yet there they are, right at the top of the list. So what does the mute button do, if it doesn't mute anything? Can we have a working mute button so that muted threads don't show up in our list, @Jason Stone (Logos) ?
