TagEditor tag settings file – changing ini file location

Changing tag settings in TagEditor can sometimes be a pain in the neck. The correct ini file does not load, cannot be found, etc. Here is how to specify manually a path to your tag settings file in the TagEditor file (TTX).

  1. Open the TTX in a plain text editor, such as Windows Notepad or PSPad.
  2.  

  3. Search for “SettingsName=” string. Sometimes the parameter will be empty, i.e. SettingsName=””, sometimes it will already contain the settings name. Enter a name as necessary between double quotes.
  4.  

  5. Search for “SettingsPath=” string. Sometimes the parameter will be empty, i.e. SettingsPath=””,  sometimes it will already contain the path to the settings file. Enter a path between double quotes. For example, SettingsPath=”C:\Program Files\MySettings.ini”.
  6.  

  7. Search for “SettingsRelativePath=” string. Sometimes the parameter will be empty, i.e. SettingsRelativePath=””,  sometimes it will already contain the relative path to the settings file. Enter a relative path between double quotes. For  example, SettingsRelativePath=”..\..\..\..\..\Program Files\MySettings.ini”.
  8.  

  9. Save the TTX and close.

Now, the TTX is set to a correct tag settings file.
