How to stop picasa collecting pictures from every where on pc
|
|
Good afternoon, I have been using picasa for a while now as it is the best free photo softwear that i can find. However it is very annoying that everytime I start it up it will search my pc for any picture files and file them away in picasa. How can I turn this off? I just want to be able to tell it which pictures I want to add to it. I have had a seach around on it and tried the help area but to no avail. Any advice much appreciated.

Just got this from a Google Group
In Picasa, do a Tools -> "Folder Manager..." choice... Set the appropriate folders and trees to "scan always" and those are the places that Picasa will scan for photos. If you want Picasa to *not* look in some folders or trees, set them to "remove from Picasa" (this won't remove anything, it just tells Picasa to ignore those places). Let the scan finish.
