I also don't understand this: "It gets to be a drag always having to re-direct to that folder whenever I want to add a file". What do you mean by "add a file"? Please be more specific. Do you mean add an image to the book your editing? This folder is currently not saved, but will be.
Please provide more details. In general people, try to be as specific as possible. I cannot read your minds, and if I have to guess we will all get nowhere rather quickly.

Okay, I've got a directory on my main writing PC - C:\MyNovels. In that directory, I've got sub-folders for each novel. (Example: C:\MyNovels\Homebrew, C:\MyNovels\WithHesitantStride, etc.) Each of those folders has the same grouping internally. The individual chapter files are C:\MyNovels\Homebrew\Chapter1.xxx, etc. and the pictures, including cover art are stored as - again, using Homebrew as an example - C:\MyNovels\Homebrew\Images\CvrImg.jpg, etc.
So I like to be able to set my 'working' directory to a given folder - let's say "With Hesitant Stride" which means I want to be able to specify the working directory C:\MyNovels\WithHesitantStride and know that Sigil will DEFAULT to that directory RATHER THAN C:\Program Files\Sigil upon firing up Sigil. I should not have to choose a working ePub in order to 'remember' the folder.
I've noticed that if I add an image, it currently defaults to C:\Program Files\Sigil (where *I* placed Sigil when installing it.).
IOW, it should assume that any and all files it will be searching for will be in the 'working directory' if I go searching to add a new file.
