Hi everybody
I have noticed that sometimes while working with some commands in GIS I don't get the results I expect. Then I do the same process exactly in the same manner except for the output address which I let it be the default address and that gives me what I need. Is it just me? I do not understand why this keeps happening?
Which output format do you use? The format could be the reason: the default address stores the data in a GDB, which usually offers better performance than shapefiles (processing speed, file size, ...). If you store your data in a file geodatabase, hopefully there should be no difference anymore.

the first question is what do you mean by the results you expect?
when it comes to the fact that the process does not occur at all, does not give any results, then maybe the fault is the path of results localization.
many processes are very sensitive to the location path, e.g. they do not tolerate spaces or non-English characters - then the standard path is safe
the correctness of a copy of ArcGIS version may also be important, which version of the program and what active extensions you have
Dear Pawl
All the paths are written in English letters and there is no space in the names of folders.
it is version 10.6.1. What is it about extensions?
Shabnam Shadloo what do you mean by 'the results you expect'?
can you provide a sample path where you get the result and one where you don't get the results?
Create a personal/file GDB and save to that folder. Like @Sebastian mentioned, GDB model has better integrity than ordinary .shp format.
P.S I am assuming that your operations are vector operations.
Dear Paweł Bronisław Dąbek
For example, when I run an "extract by mask" command for a raster, the result raster's pixels do not match the mask raster. But doing the exact command and specifying the default address, makes the pixels match!
the address I am trying to save the raster is as follows:
articles\mine\ShirinModelling\Shabnam\data
okay
Is the resulting raster format the same in both cases?
if the default location is selected, it is usually a geodatabase, then the resulting raster is in grid format
if you choose your location, and you take tiff as the resulting raster format, it can be exactly as you say
because the tiff raster must be a rectangle, so extract by mask will be ineffective here
but if you choose the resulting format as grid regardless of the location of the result, the raster result should be the same
Paweł Bronisław Dąbek
Yes. Thanks a lot. I tried it now. When the format is grid it all works.
