I have a new computer with a tiny 64 gigabyte hard drive. It has Win 10 currently but I may delete this new activated spyware in favor of a non activated copy of windows 8. I'm looking to have a batch file or registry patch or some other method to tell windows to install all app data and save game data to another larger partition. I know I'll have to tell each installer to point to my larger drive when i install my programs - but I also need Windows to use a folder on this larger drive for all app data and saved gamed if possible.. i know i'll have o fight with some save game folders because not all games use the same folder... I just need to automate as much of this as i can.
Please Do NOT post a reply If you cannot tell me how to do this. I KNOW it can be done because I remember all the talk about doing this when ssd's came out. Don't tell me it's a bad idea and I'll have trouble.. I've heard that already and understand the risks. All i need from you guys are instructions, not commentary on your personal beliefs on my doing this.. Thanks. ( The Critical thing here is getting Windows to use another folder for all appdata)
