Step 1: (optional) Change Default Install Folder Location

The format for the location of the install folder is {local drive}:\{InstallFolder}.

By default the InstallFolder location is {local drive with the most free space}:\Nintex.

If you choose to change the location of InstallFolder:

  • It should be targeted to a local folder on a drive with more than 500GB of free disk space

  • The InstallFolder can't be the root folder of a drive

  • (for example, C:\ is not allowed)

  • The InstallFolder folder name can't include spaces

  • (for example, C:\Install Folder\ is not allowed)

  • The InstallFolder folder path cannot be longer than 19 characters (20 if a backslash is added at the end)

To change the install folder location:

  1. Open the Nintex Process Discovery Server Installation configuration file, PDServer64BitSetup.exe.json, with a text editor.

  2. Enter the value for InstallFolder parameter between the corresponding double-quotes, for example:

    3. "InstallFolder": "C:\\NewFolder

    The syntax for specifying folder and file locations in JSON uses a double backslash in each location in which Windows syntax would use a single backslash, for example: C:\\ProgramFiles\\MariaDB\\

  3. Save the JSON file.
