Help! Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much. Sincerely, your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna Always scroll to the bottom of the page for the main download link. We don't believe in fake/misleading download buttons and tricks. The link is always in the same place. FreeMove v1.6.0 Move directories (even from one drive to another) freely without breaking installations or shortcuts If a program installs on C:\ by default or you want to move the installation folder of a program to somewhere else without breaking it you can use this program. How It works The files are moved to the new location A directory junction is created from the old location to the new one. This way trying to access a file from its old location will simply redirect to the new one Usage Run the executable and use the GUI If you want to move from or to a directory, like those contained in C:\Program Files, which requires administrative privileges, run the program as an administrator or it won't work! Recommendations You should not move important system directories as they can break core functionalities like Windows Update and Windows Store Apps. C:\Users - C:\Documents and Settings - C:\Program Files - C:\Program Files (x86) should not be moved. If you wish to do It anyway do it at your own risk. To move the directory back refer to the last part of the readme. However moving directories contained in the previously mentioned directories should not cause any problem. So you are free to move C:\Program Files\HugeProgramIDontWantOnMySSD without any problem. Uninstalling moved programs To uninstall you a program you should proceed as you would do normally without deleting the junction. This way the uninstaller will delete all the files It needs to (even if they are in the new location) and leave the junction file and an empty directory where you moved the program which you can choose to delete manually or not (they take up almost no space) Moving back a program Delete the junction (this won't delete the content) in the old position and move the directory back to its original position Changes: 1.6.0 Added further checks to prevent moving critical directories Improved moving performance by using BackgroundWorker  Click here to visit the author's website.
