Question does anyone know of any software that will safely move an installed program to a diffferent drive.

I am updating the size of my SSD c drive.
previously had some programs stored on a B drive as an overflow
does anyone know of a package that will safely move an installed program from say my B drive to my C drive without having to delete and re install

many thanks

Tony

Too many registry entries are in play to do that. Reinstallation is the only reliable way.

never even seen a program that claims to do that, much less one that actually works.

uninstall and reinstall is the best way to do it, plain and simple. got files in multiple places, registry keys, needed .dll files and other things to consider. trying to ensure everything gets moved/changed right is not worth the effort when a simple re-install will do the trick with no problems to worry about.
