Ok I followed a tutorial to install metro apps in a different location but I couldn't get it to work please help, I'm trying to make the apps install onto an sd card and how would I also go about installing major programs e.g Java, and other programs that normally go in the systems programs folder. Ps I'm on a windows 8.1 tablet and you can use a micro sd card for more storage.
 
Solution
here's what I found:

There was a way to install Windows Store apps to an SD card in Windows 8, but Microsoft has removed this feature in Windows 8.1. Apps must be installed to the device’s internal storage. You can still install desktop apps to removable media, of course.
