Moving Files or Programs

I have 2 internal drives, on is a SSD and the other is a HDD. Is it possible to move a program or file from one drive to the other without having to mess with the registry and if so how?

  • It is recommended to reinstall the program or copy the files manually, moving them directly may cause the program to not work properly

    You can usually just cut and paste files from one drive to another using File Explorer. The file paths will change, but there's no registry impact.
