Can someone tell me how to change the default location of where by Lightroom backup folder is?  I have a computer with a built in 2nd hard drive and I want my backup to be in the drive, "D" and not my "C".

Akash has you pointed in the right direction.

In the (next) dialog box that does the actual backup, you have the option of picking the location for the backup files to be placed.

Hi aaron1956,

You may open Lightroom Edit>Catalog Settings and click "Show" to navigate to the location of your backup catalog. Please refer this article Photoshop Lightroom catalog FAQ for more info.

Tell Lightroom to back up the catalog when Lightroom next exits.

Thanks,

Akash
