Data Folder.
This tab allows you to change the location of the folder where Advanced Link Manager keeps its data. When you press the [OK] button, the path to the old data folder is renewed by the path of the new data folder.
Automatically install new search engine updates.
If this preference is checked, the application checks for a new version of the search engine definition file every time it is started. If an update is available, it is downloaded to your computer, and a message box will be displayed asking you to restart the application. It is recommended that you always have this option checked.
If this preference is not checked, the application will display a dialog box (like the one below) every time it detects that a new search engine update is available. If you choose not to install the update right away, you will be reminded again the next time you launch the application.

In case there is an update available, and the application is launched (in the background) from the scheduler, the update is downloaded and installed regardless of the value of the above preference. |
