Is there way to change directory of all ENB related file?

I like to use ENB and hope to try and pray with many presets.

But even though there are a few ENB manager , I still feel difficulity to manage ENB files.
Sometimes it not work as I expeted. (I lost preset etc)

Then if I can gather all ENB related files (plug ins, and preset, ini) in /game directory/ENB/
I believe we can manage ENB presets more simple. If I need to remove ENB temporally,
we just delete ENB directory or rename, or hide the directory, or exchange ENB as we like. (include all ini, dll,, presets enbseries in ENB directory)

why I hope it, recently I often need to install dll files in game directory, so it easy mix up.
then sometimes, I do not remember,, which dll are offered from which mod , patch, tool etc, then when change version , I really need to check one by one again.

I know, I am too lazy, but if ENB can offer way to change root directory, from game directory, (sub directory of the game)
really apreciate.. :idea: And of course I just follow Boris designed structure.. so any folda name is OK.
I may recommend "BV_ENB" then we may install all ENB related files in the new root. ;)

Root folder can't be changed, cause only there must be placed dll, in any other places game can't load it. As for other files of the mod, they are in "enbseries" folder, so i don't see the point in your question. If you want to switch presets on they fly inside the game, it is not possible now without negative side effects.

Sorry I understand.. I did not know dll should need to install game folda.

Usually I just follow guide which offered by preset author, so you means,
Are enblocal.ini and enbseries.ini still work if I locate them in "enbseries" ?

sometimes they are in game root directory, but I sometimes saw they are in enbseries directory of mod package too.
then when I install those preset, I often get confusing. :roll:

if I locate 2 enblocal.ini in game directory and in enbseries directory, which will be used?
sorry basic question, but I hope you confirm.

If those files are in the enbseries folder, then they will be used instead of root folder. But i highly recommend to not use enblocal.ini from external presets, it must be per user and in root folder.
