Right!
Playing around more, I was able to export and have the .sav file.
However, as you say, my problem is finding my files. I have a series
of procedures one after another, which look for images, process and
save them on the hard disk, and then restore in next procedure to do
some other analysis, and so on. Hence, lots of saving to E drive, and
restoring. I understand this will be a problem in VM, however, I saved
all the images I needed into the project and still it spits out an
error of not being able to find folder at cd.
Where are you supposed to save the images and read them from so that
there is no hic in VM? Is there a special filepath?
Thanks!
