There are times when you may wish to delete the working copies of your project files. For example, you may want to
free up spaceonyourharddrive,orare completely finished workingonthe project. VersionCue lets youdeleteyour
working copies of project files by disconnecting from the project. Disconnecting from a project deletes the working
copies projectfolderonyourharddrive.You candothisatany time if none of theworking copies areInUse by you.
If youaccidentallydisconnectfromaproject, newworking copies arerecreated thenexttimeyou access theproject
files. If a project is deleted from either the host workspace or your local computer, you can use working copies to
recreate the project with the most current versions of the files.
To relocate working copies of a project, edit the project’s properties and use the Change Location feature. For instruc-
tions, see “To edit the properties of a project” on page 92.
Note: Make sure that you use the Change Location feature to relocate working copies, rather than moving the project
folder manually in the file system.

File protection in Version Cue
VersionCue automaticallyinforms others that afileisbeing edited.Version Cueassigns In Usestatustoafile when
you open and edit a file that isn’t being edited by another user. When you save a version, Version Cue removes the
file’s In Use status.
Note: In InCopy, you must choose File > Checkin after saving a version to remove the file’s In Use status.
At times two people may need to work with a file simultaneously. For example, User A may begin editing a file but
be called away before saving a version. If User B works on the file while User A is away, Version Cue ensures that the
two files don’t overwrite each other in the project. User A’s working copy won’t reflect the changes made by User B,
and vice versa. When finished with the file, both users can save a new version of the file to the Version Cue
Workspace. Version Cue alerts all current users of the file about the presence of a new version in the Version Cue
Workspace and gives them the option of downloading the latest version or continuing their current edits. Alterna-
tively, users can save their edits as an alternate.(Version Cue alerts users who have the file open or who re-open a file
that was previously closed while In Use.)
Note: Two users can’t edit a file simultaneously in InCopy.
You can use the Version Cue Workspace Administration utility to assign lock protection to a Version Cue project.
Only the first user to begin editing an available file in a lock-protected project can save the next version of that file
to the Version Cue project. Other users who edit that file simultaneously can’t save changes to a new version of that
file, even after the first user saves a version. These other users must save the changes as completely new files with
their own version thread; however, they can designate their file as an alternate of the original file.
