Summary
Tableau Desktop allows users to change the location of an extract data file by converting the.twbx file to a.twb file, unpacking it in Windows Explorer, or extracting it and saving it in Tableau Desktop. If the workbook is a.twb (unpackaged workbook) connected to an extract (.tde), any changes to the extract will be saved to the location specified when the original extract was created. If the workbook is a.twb (unpackaged workbook) connected to an extract (.tde), any changes to the extract will be saved to the Tableau temp folder.
