However, when I search for the file, I cannot find it. I was also trying to store an org file in ~/org-mode/work.org . It seemed sometimes that it would read those files from ~/org-mode/work.org and write them to c:/Users//AppData/Roaming/org-mode/work.org . And I could not find that file/path either. I have taken to storing the org files in C:/Users//Desktop/org-file/work.org . It works but I would rather use ~/org-mode for the directory. Any thoughts on this? Thanks, Steve
