Default Moving folder from C to D

Hi Chris,
Which exact folder are you trying to move ? If it is a shell folder like My
Documents then you can right-drag it to the new location and click on "move"
once you are prompted to. If it is any other folder please let me know.

How do I move a folder from my C partition to my D partition and have all
the paths in the registry point to the new location. In Win98 I use to do
this using Partition Magic 4 using a program called Magic Mover but since

PM
4 isn't compatible with WinXP I can't use it. I'm using version 8 of PM

and
it doesn't look like it has the same program. Is this capability built

into
WinXP or can someone recommend a 3rd party utility that will do this?

Thanks
Chris

Default Moving folder from C to D

I want to move an application that I installed on drive C and move it to
drive D. I'd prefer not having to uninstall and reinstall since I'll lose
my preferences I've setup.
