Clicking on Done or Cancel on the “System Settings” panel closes the panel and returns you to the Main Environments list panel.
The Root Development Environments Folder field allows you to change where the Environments tool creates the environment folders.
The Root Installations Folder field defines where Environments looks for the VAST Client installation folder. It defaults to the normal location where the VAST Platform installer installs new Releases but can be changed to any accessible location if you store your VAST Installations in a different location.

•For Unix systems, the default is gedit.
