Starting in version 3.21.196.0 the database path can contain environment variables wrapped in %. This allows the path the be dynamic based on the machine name or current user.

Examples

D:\Dropbox\AppData\Ditto\%computername%.db
D:\Dropbox\AppData\Ditto\%username%.db

  1. A list of common environment variables can be found here, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_variable#Default_values

  2. The hyper link to this path below the database path text box will display the resolved path if it sees a % in the database path

  3. Custom environment varialbes are supported, in windows go to system properties - advanced - Environment Variables to define. After creating environment variables i was see Ditto need to be restarted before it would see the new value.
