Mapping Siteworks emulator

    I often use the Siteworks emulator on my PC to help guys in the field so I can follow along to what they are doing and to also make sure each project is loading correctly. The issue I have is that my projects I want to choose from are not mapping correctly to the proper folder. How do I change the folder my projects are mapping to? In the attached pic, the highlighted green folder is where all the projects are currently mapping and want them to go the folder highlighted in blue

    Just delete or rename the old folder and restart Siteworks, it should ask for a new layer location afterwards.

    I can't delete or rename that folder because that is an active field tablet

    I am new to Worksmanager and Siteworks.  There is the option to do the Field Data to USB option.  You can go in to select a folder where to save that data to.!!

    In that case you'll need to move the folder someplace else for a few minutes.

    Restart the simulator, that will now ask for a new folder, so point it to the new one.

    And now move the other folder back.

    You can also go into your C:\Trimble Synchronizer Data\MP TSC7\Trimble SCS900 Data folder, and delete, rename or move the Allsites.xml out of that folder, then when you restart Siteworks it will ask you where you want to map your data folder to, in which case just make sure it says C:\Trimble Synchronizer Data\PC\Trimble SCS900  

    If you really want to get fancy there's a registry setting at: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Trimble\SCS900\Folders that if you change the "MP TSC7" to "PC" that should re-map the emulator to the device you want.

    Hi Steve, I did try and remove the ALL SITES xml and it did ask for me to enter a new location and I did put PC. For some reason though it still does not map correctly it is now mapping tothe emulator folder and the device name is now: EM-000XXXX
