# How to Modify the Scratch Directory Location
The scratch directory is used by the App-V Sequencer to save temporary files during the sequencing of an application.
**Important**  
The specified scratch directory location should be located on the computer running the App-V Sequencer.
Use the following procedure to modify the scratch directory location.
**To modify the scratch directory location**
1. To open the App-V Sequencer Console, on the computer running the App-V Sequencer, select **Start** / **Programs** / **Microsoft Application Virtualization** / **Microsoft Application Virtualization Sequencer**.
2. To access the App-V Sequencer **Options** dialog box, select **Tools** / **Options**. On the **General** tab, specify the new scratch directory location where you want the App-V Sequencer temporary files to be saved. Alternatively, you can click **Browse** and use the **Browse For Folder** dialog box to specify a new location.
3. To save the new location and close the **Options** dialog box, click **OK**.
