How to change the Repository path in CubeIDE?

[JBazm.1]

Hello community, I have a problem with new project creation, whenever I want to create a new project I come across this error: create minimal project failure: cannot read template source. reason: internal error

i know the problem which is having a space in my user folder name which i don't wanna change because it might mess my registry files.

so i'd like change the repository location to another place if it's possible.

thank you for having me.

In STM32CubeMX, you can navigate to Help -> Updater Settings to change the repository directory. I don't know if this will carry over to STM32CubeIDE, but it may.

thanks

I changed that but it did't help

i find a way to change "Firmware package repository" in CubeIDE when creating project and still nothing

I'm getting mad, it's been 4 days i'm dealing with this thing, i don't know what to do...

and another thing: when i switch my workspace my theme returns to default mode(light), WHY?

another thing: when i'm trying to create the project from standalone CubeMX, this error pops up, thank you very much!

and I have installed the CubeIDE!

i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong...

Very late answer (sorry about that), but it might be helpful for future readers.

In STM32CubeIDE, look at the menu bar at the top, and go to Window, Preferences, STM32Cube, Firmware Updater. In the upper portion of the window you should find a field named Firmware installation repository.

This is the correct answer. Thank you very much!

Thank you very much for these hidden Menuentry. On my company I have only a small amount of personel data space for my User Account because of Online Storage for these Account's. Now I can move these large files to my Harddisk.

Great

Glad to be of service.

New path to what? To your project or to the 'Cube repository'? If the latter - the old path is already written in the project config. Changing the repository path in the CubeMX/IDE settings won't help for existing projects.

What you can do: open the .project file in text editor and manually fix all instances of the old path. Usually in the  <linkedResources> section.

This fix unfortunately didnt helped :/. So after all I did full reinstall of Cube programs and I make sure to save the appropriate program folders into a path without unsupported characters.
