You should not need to change this.

Upgrading

Running the Loki Control installer to upgrade is a similar process.

However, the installer steps that allow selection of the :

  • Watch
  • Succeeeded
  • Failed
  • Logging
  • Notes

folders will not be presented.

This is because these folders are already configured in the lokicontrol.ini file.

See the Configuration section for a description of the lokicontrol.ini file, the configuration settings available and the folders used.
