jaje Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 My OS SSD is filling rapidly, with the main culprit the App Data folders. Is there an easy way to move them to my 1TB drive and thus free up space? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 A symlink would do the trick. There are various ways to accomplish this though I don't know which is the best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest_Jim_* Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Symlinks can be really wonderful things. Using several to make backing up saved games a great deal easier, including saves that are normally kept in AppData. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroFight Posted June 14, 2014 Posted June 14, 2014 I should think changing the environment variable for %appdata% would work... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest_Jim_* Posted June 14, 2014 Posted June 14, 2014 If you're goal is to move the entire folder, changing the variable should work. The symlinks would allow you to move just the largest folders, so everything else can stay on the boot drive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
