| This setting allows you to access linked files on multiple computers even when they're stored in different locations on each computer. You should set the base directory to the folder on each computer under which you store linked files. For example, if the folder with your linked files is at ''/Users/Sarah/Dropbox'' on your laptop and at ''C:\Users\Sarah\Dropbox'' on your work computer, set those paths as the base directory on each respective machine. If you add a linked file within the base directory, Zotero stores a relative path to that base directory rather than an absolute path. | This setting allows you to access linked files on multiple computers even when they're stored in different locations on each computer.
