    NinjaTrader installation error, installing in Google Drive

    Hi,
    This is Jc, newbie at this forum, looking for help.

    I'm trying to intall Ninja Trader 7 (or 8) in my desktop computer.
    My Documents folder is inside Google Drive, just for backup purpose.
    When I install NT 7 (or 8) I have the same error message: "An error ocurred while attemting to create the directory: C:\Users\jc\Google Drive\Documentos (destination of Documents folder in windows).
    The same error appears installing NT 7.
    No error log nor aditional information during the installation.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance,
    JC

    Hello JC,
    Thanks for your post.
    If this directory is in the cloud it is not supported and you will need to redirect the Documents folder to a local drive.
    If this is a directory that is local but auto backs up to the cloud you will need to pause this while using NinjaTrader.

      Stoping Google Drive wasn't enough. I redirected the Documents folder to a local My Documents folder, install NT 8, redirect the Documents folder to initial folder in Google Drive, copy de NinjaTrader 8 folder from local folder to Google Drive folder.

      Now NT 8 runs fine. I'll test NT 8 during a few days with this installation. I will report any problem if found.

      Regards,
      JC
