and is located in My Documents. You can choose a different folder for exchanging Bluetooth files;
however do not select the root directory (for example, C:) or a system folder. Selecting the root
directory or a system folder creates the potential for remote devices to harm the operating
system on your computer.

Bluetooth Exchange Folder is used to store received files. The location and name of the folder can be
specified on the Share tab of
