I am evaluating Kolibri for use in a group of schools in Nigeria. I’ve managed to download and install Kolibri on a Windows 10 laptop. I’ve also downloaded a few content. I want to transfer this content to a flash drive for use at another location without Internet connectivity. The manual says I should find the content in C:\Users\username.kolibri. (substituting username with the appropriate username here). This folder however doesn’t exist. Is there anywhere else I need to look?
The recommended procedure to export content from one Kolibri device onto an external drive, in order to import it on another Kolibri device without the Internet connectivity, is to go to Device > Channel and use the Export feature. You can find the relevant instructions in the Kolibri User Guide.
The reason you might not see the .kolibri folder could be because your main hard drive is on another unit instead of C:\:
How do a modify my installation to set .kolibri on a different drive other than on my OS? I have a 256GB SSD (OS-Windows) and a 2TB HDD. I would like to store my content on the HDD drive.
It describes how to have Kolibri running from the SSD drive (so .kolibri folder stays with the OS) to allow faster access to the database, but move just the content files to the bigger HDD drive.
