2. Press the Alt key to make the menu appear at the top of the application.

3. Click Tools and select Options.

4. Select the Advanced tab.

5. Go to the Maintenance and Troubleshooting section and click the Maintenance button.

6. Click the Store Folder button.

7. Click the Change button.

8. Browse to the desired location.

9. Click the OK button.

10. Click OK to close the Store Location window.

11. Click Close to close the Maintenance window.

12. Click OK to close the Options window.
