We are looking at a 25 user license or maybe a site license. Is there a network license available that can monitor the number of users at one time, also is there a way to change the default file save path to a shared drive so everyone can share the same cases. We do not want to use the web to share. Thanks for the help. We are on a Netware Network.

GenoPro is network aware and can save to any mapped drive or save directly to a remote server (example \\servername\share\folder\file.gno). By default, GenoPro saves its files in the "My Documents" folder. If the user saves in a different folder, GenoPro remembers that folder next time when opening or saving a file.

My recommendation is purchasing a site lisense. The site license will include your organization logo with a link to your website (see http://www.genopro.com/buy/site-license/ for sample screenshots) and has no user limit. The site license is ideal for network installation because it does not require the user to enter a registration key. We also support a command line to specify the installation path (http://www.genopro.com/setup/command-line/).

As for specifying the default file save path, GenoPro does not support this yet. If you purchase a site license from us, I will add a new command line option /PathFileSave, to change the default save path at installation.

Example (assuming X: is your shared drive):

InstallGenoPro.exe /PathFileSave "X:\GenoPro Documents"

The other alternative is by manually patching the registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU\gno to include the default file save path.
