6.2.1 Specify Trusted Locations Dialog Box

A trusted location is a directory that's designated as a secure source for opening files. By default, Reflection allows you to open documents only in directories specified as trusted locations in the Reflection settings.

During installation, Reflection specifies four default trusted locations on your local hard drive. The paths for three of these trusted locations cannot be modified or deleted. However, you can remove the trusted location for the user desktop (...users\<user>\Desktop). You can also add your own trusted locations to the list.
