About the Configuration Folders
The Configuration folders contain elements of the Flash 8 application that you can
customize. If you customize or extend Flash 8, you modify these files or add your source files
to one or more of these folders. By familiarizing yourself with these folders, you can learn
about the interface for extensibility provided in Flash 8.
The Configuration folders exists in three separate locations depending on your operating

second, User configuration, is stored in a location that is writable for the person who is

The files in the Configuration folders make up much of the Flash 8 interface. Do not
modify, delete, or add to these files unless you know how to customize and extend Flash
8.
