Free up storage space by relocating apps to another drive!

Before relocating programs, take a few precautions: create a System Restore point, back up your app files, and free up storage space on the destination drive.
To move an app, head to Settings > Apps > Installed Apps. Click the three dots, choose "Move," pick the new drive, and confirm with "Move" again. In cases where this method is not applicable, use the "robocopy" and "link" commands in the Command Prompt to relocate apps.
For games installed via a gaming client, use the client's built-in feature for secure and swift relocation.
