    Short of turning off UAC and getting constant reminders it's off from windows is there another way to revert this back to how it was before the update?

    I'm constantly having to manage files on my SSD as it is nearly full all the time and this is just going to make it worse.

    I managed to get 1 server working by creating an Automobilista folder in my documents and moving the userdata folder into it.

    I was hosting 3 servers before the update but I cant get the second or third servers to work

    I believe if you right click on the application, properties, compatibility and tick run as admin it should force the game to use the game folder for user data. You will probably need to do this for all the exes though (and possibly steam)

    It must be possible, if you don't want to run it in administrator mode, to edit the config.ini in your C:\Users\.......\Documents\Automobilista and choose another drive for the data directories
    Make a backup of the config.ini before you try
