BrainVoyager EDU Access File (eduexdat.bin)

• Only registered data files and other files derived from them can be accessed by BV EDU

• An access file keeps track of which files can be accessed by BV EDU

• Any new files that you generate from enabled files will be added to your access file

• If you want to enable files generated by another user, you can get a file , eduexdat.bin, from them and add it to your files using File/Show EDU Datasets… then Add More Datasets then Browse to select the file on your computer

• DO NOT CLICK “Clear Extra Datasets” unless you really know what you’re doing

Geek info: The local access file is stored here but most users shouldn’t need to work with it.

Replace [drive] with system drive (usually C:\)

Mac  /Users/[user]/Library/Application Support/Brain Innovation/BrainVoyagerEDU

Replace [user] with account username

To see some of the folders and files, you may need to show hidden folders and files. On your main HD, typically called “Macintosh HD”, type command-shift-. (i.e., command-shift-period) to see and unsee hidden folders and files. See Figure below.

You may not have an access file eduexdat.bin unless you’ve saved any new files while using BV EDU
