Addpaths are used in the following ways:

- put your newly collected wip roms there, Scanner's "fix missing" will search any addpath for roms when it finds a missing rom/set and copies (no move) it to your rompath.
You don't have to setup your cmpro backup path as a rompath. This is already done internally. Fix missing also searches for missing roms in all your rompaths (e.g. if a set misses a file which is already in one of your other sets). It does that even without setting up any addpaths.

- the rebuilder is normally limited to 1 sourcefolder (or you use drag& drop from the rebuilder or scanner). There's an option to use multiple source paths, by enabling the "use addpaths" option. So it'll use each addpath as a rebuilder sourcepath and rebuilds the files from there. Great to add new stuff to your collection.

Now you know ;)
