How to Move Windows Programs to Another Drive
General steps to show you how to move your Windows programs to another drive:
1. Make sure that the target drive where you want to move your programs has enough free space to accommodate all the files.
2. Create a folder in the target drive where you plan to store your programs. You can name it anything you like.
3. Navigate to the Control Panel, and click on “Programs and Features.”
4. Find the program that you want to move, right-click on it and choose “Uninstall.” This will not remove the program completely but will give you the option to move it to a different drive.
5. Follow the prompts in the uninstall wizard, and choose the option to “Change installation location” or “Move to a different drive.”
6. Select the folder location in the target drive that you created earlier, and click “OK” or “Move.”
7. Wait for the program to be transferred to its new location.
8. Repeat the steps for all the programs you want to move to the new drive.
Note that not all programs can be moved easily to another drive. Some programs may require that you reinstall them entirely. Make sure to check the program’s documentation or contact the software vendor if you are unsure whether the program can be moved.
