re: Location of the profile.msh for custom provider

Hi Omar,
If you are interested in executing some code during provider initialization, you can use the Provider Start function. For executing code for new drive, you can use the NewDrive function .

As lee says, please let us know your scenario, and we can help you better.

Hi Omar;

The profile is a way for users to customize their shell environment. The side-effects are important, not the files themselves. After all, what's stopping somebody from having an empty profile at the location you require?

What is driving this goal?

If a certain side effect is important, then you should verify that instead.

Hi all,

I am developing a provider in Monad (MSH) and I found that the default
profile file must be located either in the users dir or in the all users
documents dir. Is there a way to say the Provider to use a profile located in
the same directory where it is running? It is because I want that all users
must have the profile.msh. How can I do that?

Thanks in advance.

Omar Vera
