![]() If you already have your application installed at the C:\ directory, you could copy it over to the E:\ directory (while it isn't running), and then delete the empty C:\ folder before executing the command. The command for this would be: mklink /D "C:\Battlefield" "E:\Battlefield"įor this command to work, the target ("E:\Battlefield") must exist, and the link ("C:\Battlefield") must not exist before the command is executed. ![]() But, the files are actually kept on 'E:\Battlefield' since that is where the symbolic link points to! Now, I can install Battlefield to 'C:\Battlefield', and as far as Windows is concerned, that is where it is installed. I create a symbolic link (very similar to a shortcut) at 'C:\Battlefield' which points to 'E:\Battlefield'. They are similar to creating shortcuts, but the difference is that Windows will see them as actual paths, not shortcuts.Ĭ:\ is my primary drive. ![]() (Windows OS solution) Symbolic links are an excellent solution to hosting games in a location that isn't the actual install location, or on a hard drive that is not your primary drive. ![]()
