At the least, it should simply get the location from the user/profile settings, i.e. what we see when right-clicking Documents in "This PC" and checking the Locations tab.

For instance, my org re-maps the Documents folder and its counterparts to a different location, which is synchronised with the cloud. AL should pick up that mapping so that my new projects are created in the place that is (a) correct and does not require me to change the path text or move the later; and (b) automatically backed up meaning I cannot lose work by leaving the project in a wrong, unsynchronised location.

So before adding a setting to specify any folder, at least fix AL to start honouring the real Documents folder per user. Thanks!
