Output location in windows file explorer

Is there a way to open the generated output from the windows file explorer? I'm testing RoboHelp 2020 on a virtual machine and would like to test the output outside of that environment. I can open the windows explorer files on my regular PC, but I'm not sure where the ouptuts are saved.

The outputs are saved wherever you have defined in the preset. If you didn't define a location, RoboHelp defaults to your user profile. Look in Documents > My RoboHelp Projects > Outputs.

 

Double clicking the index.htm file will open it in the machine's browser.

Also, right-click on the output preset and select Show in Explorer.

Thank you! That is exactly what I needed and I can already tell it works much better when it's not hidden on a virtual machine.
