Default default file location

I want separate default file locations for the "Save As" and the Reuse Slides
- Browse File button.

I changed the path in PowerPoint Options/Save/Default File location, but it
changed it for both.

Is there any way to have separate defaults for each?
Thank you.

Default default file location

As far as I can tell the reuse slides seems to go to the last location used?

It appears that as long as I leave PowerPoint open, it defaults to the last
location used. But, when I close & reopen PowerPoint, it goes back to the
other default.

Thank you for your comments. Until I get a better solution, I will probably
set the default to my slides library and change the path when I need to Save
As. I usually reuse slides from several library files for each ppt that I
set up.
