Please note that changing the storage path is possible after it
has been created, but it requires the files to be manually moved
from the old storage location to the new path.
In more complex applications, for example, multiple applications
and data groups may link to the same storage location.
Identifying the files that belong to the corresponding records is
very complicated and can only be done at the database level by
checking each reference. If files have been moved it is required
to change the alias that references the new file storage location
in the
properties of the data field
afterwards.
