Creating a new workspace

The TreeAge Pro Workspace stores application settings for TreeAge Pro application. This includes the arrangement of views and editors, projects, recently opened models, etc. You can also store models within the Workspace, but we recommend that you store your models in a separate location that is regularly backed up.

The default location of the Workspace is a folder named "treeage" within your home user folder.

Occasionally, you may need to switch your Workspace if it becomes corrupted or to see new features. To create a new Workspace, follow the instructions below to create a new one.

1. Choose File > Project > Switch Workspace.
2. Enter the name of a new folder location within the user folder on your computer.
   1. Typically, you can just add a 2 at the end of the current workspace folder.
   2. Check the box to "remember workspace".
3. TreeAge Pro will restart and create a new workspace in the new folder location.

Note: If you are unable to perform the steps above because you cannot even startup TreeAge Pro, you can simply rename the current Workspace folder, and TreeAge Pro will create a new one.

1. Close TreeAge Pro.
2. Navigate to your user home folder (via Windows Explorer or Mac Finder).
   It should be one level above your documents folder.
3. Rename the folder "treeage" to something like "treeage-old".
4. Start TreeAge Pro and it will create a new "treeage" folder for a new Workspace.
5. You can delete the "treeage-old" folder, but only if you are certain that you have not saved your models within this folder. We recommend that you wait a few weeks to be sure.

If you still get an error message after following the instructions above, please create a support ticket through the help desk for further assistance.
