    How to move AppData to a different drive in Windows 10


    My C drive is basically full, I want to free up space by moving C:/Users/super/AppData to my D drive which has a lot more space. What's the best way of going about doing this? Or else if it's a bad idea, what other way could I free up space in my C drive?

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
