Hello,
You can change the default folder in the registry.
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\NextcloudOutlookFree
And then change ‘pathUploadFiles’ and / or ‘pathPublicShare’ to the desired location. Make sure that you end the path with a ‘/’ as done with the default path.

Thanks, but there is no Key like this:
There is even no key “NextcloudOutlookFree” sth. where else.
But your idea brought me to the right solution!
It is stored in different places, on different PCs:
Computer\HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-275791455-274035121-1529677176-5796\Software\NextcloudOutlookFE Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\NextcloudOutlookFE
Both times on Win10 Pro, with “Secure File Sharing Setup_23117_x64_free”.
Office 2016 on the first PC, Office 365 on PC two.
It is not stored on different places on different PC’s. Always use the HKEY_CURRENT_USER. And sorry you are right it is indeed NextcloudOutlookFE
Well, why? Here it is definitely stored in different places, as mentioned above.
The add-in only writes to HKEY_CURRENT_USER and can only access that part of the registry. The add-in itself does not write in HKEY_USERS. Now what happens is HKEY_CURRENT_USER works kind of a like a redirect to /HKEY_USERS/[SOME_UNIQUE_USER_ID], so you can navigate to both and if you change something at one place in the registry and refresh it in the other the value would be the same.
