  4. Locate and select the folder where you want to save project backups.
  5. Click Select Folder (Windows)/Open (macOS) to insert the new path in the Project backup folder field.
  6. Click Apply, then Close.

Result

The default folder for project backups is changed. If the folder specified does not exist, Dorico Pro creates it.
