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 can change the versions that appear in the text comparison tool with no trouble. However, when I press F7 from my Bible, I do not get the versions I want to compare. How do I change the Bibles that appear when I press F7?
I have noticed that I can right click in the media tool and send that image to a sermon, word document or Power Point but cannot send it to the Bible Study Builder. Also it would be nice if the little icon in my Bible that indicates there is available media for that passage would also show up in the Mobile app
Why are all my cross reference footnotes suddenly only in NASB, no matter what version of the Bible I’m in? I mainly use ESV, but when I click a cross reference footnote, it is in NASB. This happens when I am using KJV and AMP…all cross references are in NASB. If I click on the cross reference, it will open up a new NASB…
Both Robert Solomon and Irving Singer attribute the quote "love is lust plus the ordeal of civility" to Freud, but neither of them provides an actual source. I have looked and looked and strongly suspect this is a sentence/claim attributed to Freud that he never actually said/wrote. This happens a lot with famous thinkers.…
Just recently - I'm guessing after an update - I started getting a desktop popup that says "Highlight Added." When it pops up, it stays up for a good 30 seconds before disappearing. While up, it covers the very last (bottom) highlight label, meaning if I want to use the highlight, I have to wait for the popup to go away.…
