Accessing the data directory can be done directly from the settings widget in the application login menu. Additionally, you can access the data directory by following the instructions below.

On Windows, this can be done by opening a File Explorer window and entering the following string in the address bar:

This string is a shortcut variable that allows quick access to the following user directory:

• C:\Users\My_User_Account\AppData\Local\StocksToTrade\

On Mac OS X, you can access the following directory:

The simplest way to do this in Finder is by pressing the following key combination:
