## My Worker cannot find Blender, what do I do?
When installing and starting the Flamenco Worker you may see a warning in the logs that says
the Worker cannot find Blender.
Example Flamenco Worker <=v3.2 log message...
```
WRN Blender could not be found, Flamenco Manager will have to supply a full path
```
There are two ways to resolve this problem:
1. Blender be installed in well known location using Blender installer or
available in the environment $PATH.
2. Use [blender two-way variable configuration][blendervar] for each known `platform` (eg: Windows, Linux or MacOS).
Note, in option (2) the `blender` path for the Worker is sent when a Render Job Task is enqueued.
The Worker will still show a warning on startup and expect the Flamenco Manager to send the Blender
path to use.

## Can I change the paths/names of the rendered files?
