Multiple browsers

angiezm1

hi,
is it possible to use Zotero on both Chrome and Edge but saving in the same local folder (rather than zotero.org) I installed connector and prompts me to download Zotero again but I have it already in use in Chrome. For some reason my default browser is Chrome but some references open in Microsoft Edge.
if it's not possible, can two Zotero folders co-exist on one machine? (such that i can use both browsers and still save documents from both browsers

Where items/PDFs are saved is unaffected by which browser/Zotero connector they come from. If you're being asked to install Zotero again after a connector installation, that can be ignored (AFAIK). The connectors simply look for an open Zotero in order to save to it.

Thank you @tim820.
I tried saving other documents on Edge and get an alert is Zotero running, tested using a link within the Zotero FAQ section (page reports that Zotero is running). On clicking retry to save it does not give the option to "ignore" but rather a try again option or cancel button
