We have never referred to standalone for the regular version of Mountain Duck distributed outside of the Mac App Store. I would instead add a note when a setting does not apply to the Mac App Store version and is therefore disabled in Preferences.

```

Volumes are mounted in the *Volumes* folder in the [application support directory](support.md). You can change the default to another folder that is writable.

**Note:** You **cannot** set it to `/Volumes` on macOS Mojave (10.14 or later) where the directory is not writable. The setting is not available in the version from the Mac App Store.

The default is set to `~/Library/Group Containers/G69SCX94XU.duck/Library/Application Support/duck/Volumes.noindex`.

```{attention}
Switching to the App Store version will cause permission issues if you customized the mount location.

We should provide a note how to resolve such a problem instead. Thus make sure to reset the custom mount location.
