Hi @gigetto1982. I'm not sure I understood correctly what you mean by this. Please provide a more detailed description to help me to understand it.

Make sure to include the following information:

• What did you do?
• What were the results you expected from doing that thing?
• What were the results you observed that did not match your expectations?

You are welcome to compose your description in your native language and then use an automatic translation service (e.g., Google Translate) to convert it to English language before posting it here on the forum.

ok, I would just like to give advice to move the libraries folder to the system user folder. Because I accidentally deleted it by making a mistake with the name of one of my programs.

Thanks.

Arduino IDE stores the libraries you install via Arduino IDE Library Manager or the "Add .ZIP Library..." feature in the libraries subfolder of the sketchbook folder.

You can configure the location of the sketchbook folder in the Arduino IDE preferences:

1. Select File > Preferences... from the Arduino IDE menus.
   The "Preferences" dialog will open.
2. Click the "BROWSE" button that is located at the right side of the "Sketchbook location" preference field.
   A "Select new sketchbook location dialog will open.
3. Select a new location for your sketchbook folder from the dialog.
   Note that the new location for storing libraries will be in the libraries subfolder of the sketchbook location.
4. Click the "Choose" button.
5. Click the "OK" button.

After doing that, you might want to copy your previously installed libraries from the libraries folder under the previous sketchbook location.
