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
Hello all, I am starting seminary and wanted to reach out to see if anyone had time to chat with me about you guys leveraged logos and writing papers. Please let me know if anyone is available to chat. Thanks in advance.
I am a Logos 10 full-feature user. I just purchased the Metzger/deSilva book and study guide for Breaking the Code Revised Edition: Understanding the Book of Revelation. The description says it includes a DVD by deSilva. How do I access it on my desktop app?
I guess you could say I have a mild case of OCD. I enjoy the continual scrolling feature, because my focus isn't distracted. It seems that continual scrolling has been deleted in LOGOS. Is this the case? Or is there some toggle that I haven't "toggled?"
Hi everyone, I know in the Pronunciation tool I can choose whether it reads a Greek word in the Erasmian, Koine or Modern way. However, in the Factbook page for a Greek word, there is also a speaker button, and when I click it, it can also read the word for me. But I wonder if it is read in the Erasmian or Koine or Modern…
When I have the NOTES page open to a specific NOTE list, on the right, I have the choices 1) Date Created, 2) Date Modified, 3) Notebook, 4) Reference, 5) Resource. Both REFERENCE and RESOURCE are grayed out? Why? I want to sort my NOTE list by Reference?
