How to do it?

1. With the program open, click the "Add Media" button on the upper left-hand corner.

3. Click "Save"

Quik for desktop will now scan these folders and add any GoPro media to the "Media" and "Recently Added" bins. PLEASE NOTE: Any videos/photos coming from 3rd party cameras WILL NOT be recognized in Quik for desktop.

If you've already added media folders, and want to remove them:

• Access the General Settings by clicking the gear icon in the upper right-hand corner

• Below the "Media Folders" section, look for the "X" to the right of the file location. Click the "X" and the location will be removed.

PLEASE NOTE: If there isn't an "X" next to your file location, that's because it's the Import Location (please reference the above screenshot) . You'll need to change the import location in order to remove that folder from the list.

If you'd like to add additional folders for Quik for desktop to scan:

• Access the General Settings by clicking the gear icon in the upper right- hand corner.
• Below the "Media Folders" section, click the "Add New" button and select your folder location.

• Afterwards, your new location will show in the list and you'll see "Scanning" next to the "X" to show that all GoPro media is being pulled from that folder.

• An alert will appear at the top right-hand corner letting you know that your files have been indexed.
• Click "Back to Media" in the upper left-hand corner and any Quik for desktop will show you all media for the location(s) which you've designated.
