moving my database to different folder

[sholomo]

So HEM3 databasea.hmdb is automatically saved in C:\Users\...\Documents\Holdem Manager 3\Databases
How can I move that to another folder, because it started to complain about low space on C folder?
Another question : is that the whole database? Or is there something else that is filling up the space?

- Close your poker clients, close HM3 and right-click - 'Exit' the HM3 Server icon in the Windows Notification Tray.
- Use Windows Explorer to find the following folder on your computer: C:\Users\{UserName}\Documents\Holdem Manager 3\Databases
- Right-click - 'Cut' the *.hmdb file(s) and go to the folder you want the database to be at in Windows Explorer then right-click - 'Paste'. Once it is done moving simply double left-click that *.hmdb file to launch HM3 so it will know where your database is now located the next time you launch HM3.
- Note: If you can't see the extension, turn off the windows option that is hiding that extension - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...0-1166d1d9f4b5
* Note: If you move it from a SSD to a HDD or an external SSD/HDD you may suffer a decrease in performance.

That one file is the entire database, the settings are stored in your \Users directory. You can make a backup of the active database and settings at any time by using the Tools - 'Backup Database...' menu then restore it using the Tools - 'Restore Database...' option.
- Individual HUD Profiles can also be exported from the HUD - HUD Editor - Options button menu.
- All original hands that are auto-imported get moved to an archive for performance reasons. Your \HM3Archive is in C:\HM3Archive by default, but you may have put it anywhere. The archive should be organized by \Network\Month\DayOfMonth (example: C:\HM3Archive\SiteName\HM3Archive\2016\07\31). It is configured in the Tools - Settings - Import menu.

If you also want to manually backup the database/settings files: Your actual uncompressed HM3 databases are stored in C:\Users\{UserName}\Documents\Holdem Manager 3\Databases\. Your personalized HM3 settings/files are stored in C:\Users\{UserName}\AppData\Roaming\Max Value Software\Holdem Manager\3.0\. If you can't see those folders/files, turn off the windows option that is hiding that directory.
