Change Project Folder automatically if present

/ Published in: Maxscript
Save to your folder(s)
When placed in startup scripts, this snippet activates every time user opens a file. It then traverses the directory path backwards and looks for user created project folders. If one is found, script offers to switch it on.

This is very useful when working with a number of projects at a time.
