  2. How to move C:\...\Appdata\Local to other disk?

    Hi Johann Eva,

    So there isn't a way to move files from Appdata\Local. OK.... if you could help me at "Is there a way to move ProgramData" folder. However, I just want to move one folder whic is located at ProgramData C:\ProgramData\Epic Is there a way
    to move it to other disk.

    Just in Case, I want to move EpicGames and Fortnite folders. Because my disk C is "Frozen" and my disk E isn't

    Good Luck,
