Whatever works best for you. I just prefer to have all of the WL “data” files
in one place – C:\ProgramData\WriteLog
I just manually updated the .DTA files and all of the “country files” (all 26
.dat, bin, and .txt files, plus the old folder), and then ran convert. (VERSION
now = Willis Island) Quick, easy, and intuitive. Works every time.

The SCP files can be stored anywhere. In the WriteLog Setup/SCP window you can
specify any arbitrary location. My person preference is to store the SCP file
in each unique contest directory that I set up. That way I archive the exact
SCP used with that contest. Never had a need for using the archive, but its
there.
I would gladly switch to C:\ProgramData\WriteLog if I could depend on the
latest SCP being downloaded, like it works with cty.dat. As long as Wayne is
manually in the update loop, that is just not dependable. (No criticism of
Wayne, but that is a poor model for updates and I'd much rather he spend time
enhancing WriteLog than doing mundane admin tasks like this.) I wonder if
Wayne and Stu K6TU can work out an automatic upload from the SCP website, as
Wayne and Jim AC1C did for cty.dat?
