Changing default File>Open location

Anonymous
Not applicable
I absolutely detest it when a program forces me to go to My Documents, THE most perused folder in the known universe by data thieves.

How can I get the program AI 10 to allow me to change whatever I need to so I can default to my directory when I try to choose File>Open, and not My Documents. I do not EVER use My Document Location for Hackers and Thieves to Find Thank You Bill Gates EVER.

I would appreciate some help. I have not found anything, not in the config file, not on the Internet, nowhere. This is a ridiculously simple feature that I am quite confident a $5,000 program SHOULD have easily altered, no?

If it has no way to alter it, which is a finite representation of infinite stupidity, then please, Autodesk, change the code and add it. Freeware used to make smiley icons has better customization than THAT.

Hello Ace.

You must first make a new project (file - projects)
There you can define your Project location! (that's where AI first go to find your files when you use Open)
