Desktop Connector Workspace Relocation in v16

Does anybody know the reason why Autodesk removed the feature to relocate workspaces in Desktop Connector v16?  In my opinion, locking ADC to an absolute file path including someone's username (C:\Users\{username}\...) is a significant flaw, especially when multiple users want to link models/files from ACC and it has caused big headaches in our workflows.  Unfortunately, I just found out about the "Change Workspace" feature in v15 shortly before we decided to upgrade to v16, so my excitement was short-lived.  Also, would there be any issues of being "left behind" if we remained on v15 indefinitely?

The feature has returned in the latest version 16.2.0.2007 which you can find on manage.autodesk.com as well as the Desktop Connector release notes page.

You can continue to use any of the available versions on the historical releases page. Keep in mind we do not put out updates for previous versions.

Aha! That's good to know, I only have v16.0 on my computer right now, but I'll make sure we update. Thanks!

This update has removed partitions of my local PC hard drive. Why and how to recover?

@andrew Desktop Connector does not modify the hard drives. This feature is pointing to an existing location on a hard drive where the local files will be stored.

We would need to know more about what steps you took to help.
