    Vista Ultimate - 'User' Folder Location

    No tried that.

    Can copy the entire folder to D; but Windows still points to C as the location. Can change personal folders location to a folder on D;, but this still leaves hidden files etc on C;. Thus meaning there are 2 Users folders. Have managed to change the Public folder location to D;, with some registry tweaks, but this doesnt seem to work for the entire folder.

    any more suggestions

    C windows installer folder - Delete?

    He can do symbolic link redirection and move the files in it to a different location. *Wink Remote installation folder location Default C:\RemoteInstall not working ;)
    Better try it out in a virtual of first. Just a suggestion.

    Like:
    First move everything in c:\windows\installer to d:\installercache
    Then delete c:\windows\installer folder
    Then type this in command mode as admin
    mklink /d c:\windows\installer d:\installercache

    Removing those installer files is a bad idea. it might prevent you from updating or uninstalling apps.

  4. Remote installation folder location Default C:\RemoteInstall not working

    "Location is unavailable" for C: folder.

    Hi Jeff,

    This error message usually appears when the hard drive files get damaged or corrupted.
    Restoring folder's default location or recovering the data and formatting the disk would help diagnose and address this problem. Make sure to log in as the administrator. Follow the steps below:

    • To restore to default location.
    1. Go to C:\Users.

    2. Open the folder name with your user name.

    3. Right-click on the desktop and select Properties.

    4. Under the Location tab, click the Restore Default button.

    5. Once done, restart your PC.

    • Verify the permissions set on the file.
    1. Open File Explorer.

    2. Right-click the file folder and select Properties.

    3. Go to Security and select Advanced.

    4. Check the box for Replace all child object permission entries with permission entries from this object at bottom.

    5. Click Apply, then OK.

    Once done, try accessing the folder again and let us know how it goes.

    Regards.
