Environment

Novell Filr 2.0
Novell Filr Desktop client 2.0

Situation

When changing the default storage location for the Filr Desktop client, the Filr client crashes and reports an error:
FilrCtrl has stopped working

This only happens if the user has installed the Filr Desktop client in a non-default folder; the default location being: C:\Program Files\Novell\Filr.

Resolution

A fix for this issue is available in the Filr 2.0 Hot Patch 3, available via the Novell Patch Finder.
