Is there a way to set a default path when opening a project? (File -> Open) . It's always pointing out to X:\Users\\Username. I've been googling and looking inside X:\Users\Username\.IdeaIC15\config\options for configuration file which could be the case, but found nothing so far. Anyone know where i can change it?

I searched for a solution, but there is no easy one in IDEA/Webstorm UI.

You have to edit the webstorm64.vmoptions/ idea64.vmoptions file (or webstorm.vmoptions/ idea.vmoptions if you are on a 32bit system). Add the line

-Duser.home=YOUR_NEW_DEFAULT_PATH

The IDE settings folder (e.g. .WebStorm11) must be either copied to your new path or imported on first start of IntelliJ/WebStorm.
