Update from Elliott 7 to 8 Gives an Error that the Drive Letter Does Not Match

Update from Elliott 7 to 8 Gives an Error that the Drive Letter Does Not Match

Release Date: 12/30/22
Version: 8.0 and Above

After an update from Elliott 7 to Version 8, I get an error that the drive letter does not match.



The issue may stem from the Tutorial company.  If the company was never used in Version 7, it may still contain the default drive letter of C:.  Elliott 8 will use the first company listed to determine the data drive letter and they may conflict with the drive letter configured in the shortcut.  You can log into Elliott as SUPERVISOR and a prompt will appear to allow you to change the drive letter or you can simply rename or remove the TUTORIAL folder if it will not be used.
