 The command `make-config-file` is used for the initial setup of the project. The **required arguments** are:
 
-`local_path`: The full file-path to the project folder on the *local* machine. For example, if you wanted to make a new project called `my_first_project` in the folder `C:\User\my_projects`, the local path would be `C:\User\my_projects`.
+`local_path`: The full file path to the project folder on the *local* machine, including the project folder. The project folder must have the same name as the datashuttle project. For example, if your project name is `my_first_project`, and the project folder resides in `C:\User\my_projects`, the `local_path` should be `C:\User\my_projects\my_first_project`.
 
-`central_path`: The path on the *central* machine to the central project. For example, if connecting to a remote Linux server, this may be `/hpc/home/user/my_projects`.
+`central_path`: The path on the *central* machine to the project folder. Similar to the `local_path`, the path must point to the project folder that has the same name as the project name in datashuttle. For example, if your project is called `my_first_project`, connecting to a remote Linux server, the `central_path` may be `/hpc/home/user/my_projects/my_first_project`.
 
 `connection_method`: `local_filesystem` or `ssh`. Local filesystem can be used if the *central* storage is mounted to the local machine. Otherwise `ssh` can be used.
