You don't need to move or copy anything. When you run recon-all, it will automatically create a simlink to fsaverage.

Dear free surfer community,

Silly question here. I note the default "subjects_dir" in freesurfer contains a bunch of directories and files.

If I set the environment so that my "subjects_dir" is not the default location, do I need to move any of the files in the original location to the new one?

I hope this makes sense.

Thanks,

Kev
