By default, the browser settings are temporarily saved to the flash memory. However, they are deleted with each device restart.

Defining a browser home directory on the network, however, allows you to let users save and make available their browser settings such as bookmarks persistently. To do so, use a network share that you have configured for access:

Defining browser home directory

	[Requires]
	Configured Windows network share ([Defined drive]).
	Example: [/smb/share]
	For further information, see Defining a network drive.

In the tree view, for the relevant level, open the [Applications] context menu and click Software defaults

For further information, see Software defaults.
On the list-field, select the relevant browser and click Edit.
In the Browser home directory field, enter the name of one of the defined drives in Device configuration > Drives. The name must correspond to the name on the list. Example: /smb/share
Confirm with OK.

The browser settings are saved to the specified Windows directory.
