We recommend that you do not disable the temporary folder path option. This is because in the temporary folder, the software creates temporary files during
various activities that users perform in Smart Instrumentation, for example, when creating specifications, generating CAD drawings, hook-up drawings,
reports, and so forth. If you prevent users from specifying individual temporary folder paths, the temporary
folder path becomes shared among several users. This can cause problems with data display when users perform the same activity at
the same time, for example, when creating two specifications at the same time.
