We cleaned up the BB folder with our release of Band-in-a-Box® 2018 for Windows!

Over the years, this folder has been growing - there were up to 10,000 files in there! We've fixed this and put the files into various folders. This is done with a cleanup routine. The cleanup normally happens automatically during installation, but you can run it manually by selecting the main menu Help | Utilities | Run Cleanup routine.

The cleanup routine does the following:
  • Moves Styles files (.STY/.STX) from C:\bb to C:\bb\Styles.
  • Moves Soloists files (.ST2/.XT2) from C:\bb to C:\bb\Soloists.
  • Moves various Demo folders to C:\Demos.
  • Moves various songs and lessons folders to C:\bb\Songs and Lessons.
  • Moves various files essential for running Band-in-a-Box to C:\bb\Data and C:\bb\Data\Lib.
  • Moves various preferences files to C:\bb\Preferences.
  • Moves tutorial demo songs, program manuals (.pdf), and the help file (.chm) to C:\bb\Documentation.
