I'm using Helicon Focus and the helicon plugin for Lightroom Classic on an iMac.
I would like to change the spool directory for the helicon export to an SSD-Mount because of speed and capacity.
Where can I change this location?
Beste regards

Lightroom export: Change spool directory
Re: Lightroom export: Change spool directory
You can select the temporary folder that Helicon Focus uses for its needs in Preferences - Integration.
BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN CHANGING THIS SETTING! The selected folder will be completely deleted every time Helicon Focus starts or quits. If you select that already exists, it will be deleted with all its contents.
Lightroom, however, uses the standard system temporary folder. You might be able to move it via a symlink, or maybe macOS offers another way to change it.
Note that by default Helicon Focus's folder is also inside the standard system temporary folder. So if you move the whole system folder, there is not need to change any settings in Helicon Focus.
