How to change STM32CubeMX Firmware repositort folder ?

I have STM32CubeMX and STM32CubeIDE installed, but each use a different Firmware repositort folder.

So I have to download (with a slow ADSL line) and install twice every firmware package.

I want to install the package in a directory out of C:/users/Admin because I doesn't have the right to search in these directories.

The repository path and button is grayed in the Updater settings:

Hello @Nikita91​ ,

The Repository Folder could not be changed while a project is open, to change it just after you opened the STM32CubeMX tool (help / updater settings) before creating you project.

Best Regards,

STM32CubeMX is allowing you to update firmware repository thru Help > Updater Settings.

Same is doable if STM32CubeIDE Thanks Windows > Preferences

Obviously you can point to same shared folder. Good pratice would be to avoid any special or blank char within such path.

Thanks to tag answer as best if happy about. It will help community to dig quickly into valuable material.
