Hello All, 

I would like to know where I can set my default file location in ACAD2014. When I click open file it will search in that location only.  I know it store previous file, but if I want to look in the main folder, this is what I want to setup. 


Thank you
KenJG

AutoCAD will search in ALL folders listed under the heading Support File Search Path.  It has to look in multiple folders for different reasons.

You have the option of also specifying a Project File Search Path too.

Look under Options > Files.
