You can install anywhere other than the C drive CS5?

I have CS5 on my computer and it works perfectly.

The problem I have is that I'm running out of space on my drive c. (currently 864 MB free 64.2 GB).

After a quick glance the stuff I have on this record, it seems to make sense to move Photoshop to another drive and instantly find more than 10 GB of space back.  I already have a dedicated reader of Photoshop on my computer (H :) which contains all my brushes to fonts, Actions etc.) It would be great if I could install it here instead.

However, are acting to computers, I know that nothing is ever as simple as it of seems.

Could someone let me know what kind of trouble I could hope to do this, or even if it is possible to do.

Just out of curiosity, I started the CS5 Installer earlier today while still having Photoshop installed just to see if it was something he would let me do. (I have no intend to uninstall Photoshop of my C drive, until I know if it's feasible).

As you can see from the picture above, it shows that I have installed Photoshop and it shows the location (highlighted for you in yellow).

I tried to change the drive letter to H:, but I can't change the text in this box.  I was wondering if this site relates only to the already existing copy of Photoshop. And so I need to uninstall the existing copy until I can change that. Or this site will always be C:\Program Files\Adobe regardless.

In short, is it possible to install CS5 on one drive other than C: without having any problems?

Also is it possible to install 2 copies of CS5 on 2 different disks? So I can test again before you finally get rid of the old.

Any help or advice are welcome.

Of course, you need to uninstall the current copy before installing Photoshop in a different place.

You can install only one copy of the same version both on the same PC.

You won't be able to install it in another location just to see if everything goes well before uninstalling the C: drive.

And Yes, choose another drive and the location in this area with the little installation folder icon will allow you to install Photoshop on another disk.  Allows you to keep the majority of a gigabyte of software out of the C: drive.

Do not forget that there are a number of things (for example, the common Adobe software) which will always and only install on C: drive, however, and there is nothing you can do to change these locations.

    How to reinstall Windows 8

    You have two options:

    If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    · Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

    · Click settings

    · Click change PC settings

    · Click general in the left column

    · In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

    Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.

    Option 2:

    If you create an installation DVD or a USB bootable, you can use them to reinstall Windows. First, you will need to reinstall license qualification, then begin the upgrade to Windows 8. License of qualification means that you will need to reinstall Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.

    Option 3:

    A workaround for this situation is to create a system image of Windows 8, just after you have upgraded. So if your drive plant, you can simply restore the image on a new hard drive or restore the image on the same drive, if you want to reinstall Windos 8.

    See the following for instructions on how to create an image of the installation process of Windows 8:

  • You can install satellite M100-164 - what hard drive?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M100-164... This is a version of Middle East the M100, almost identical to the European version, as far as I can tell.
    (short only model no psma0e)

    I want to install a new hard drive. The specification says he uses a 5400 RPM Serial - ATA hard disk.

    I can use any hard disk of this type, or are there other things to monitor (for example depth of drive, the pin configuration?)

    for example can I use this drive:
    "Toshiba MK2555GSX 250 GB 2.5 SATA HARD drive internal
    [http://www.amazon.co.uk/Toshiba-MK2555GSX-250GB-2-5-Inch-Internal/dp/B002752SLU]

    ... or I should he play safe and use one that explicitly says its for the M100, for example this one on Ebay:
    "250 GB hard drive Toshiba Satellite L35-L45 M100, M105"
    [http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/250Gb-Hard-Drive-Toshiba-Satellite-L35-L45-M100-M105_W0QQitemZ190276248831QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Co mputing_HardDrives_RL]

    Thank you

    Hello!

    On the SATA drives, there is no capacity limit and you have on each HARD disk the same pinout. This means that you can use each SATA HDD you want and also SATA2 hard drives because they downgrade compaitible then standard SATA1.

    However, you can buy the cheaper version on Amazon. This HARD drive should work as well in Notepad.

    I hope I could help a bit.

    Good bye

  • How install on FF and TB on other than the C: drive?

    I try to install FF and TB on a Windows 7 computer, today, 27/10/15. I started with FF and made sure that the end of the installation has been downloaded on the D: drive. The C: and D: drives are separate physical disks. The stub is for FF worm. 41.0.2 Nevertheless, it is installed on the C: drive.

    I read two articles that seem to answer my question, but they do not work for me because the installation stub does not offer the option to choose custom install and it does not offer the option to select a destination drive.

    I use another computer while askin that question. At best, I've changed the assumptions. I am trying to install on a 64-bit Windows 7 computer.

    If the stub Installer offers an option for a custom installation, use the full installer - https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ - it's all I've ever used, and I do a custom always location.

    Remember that no matter which logic / physical drive either Firefox or Thunderbird is installed on, the bulk of their respective folders is installed in/AppData/Roaming/on the drive where the operating system is installed. This is where the profiles will be implemented.
    There are ways around that, but it can be committed depending on how you talk and other special requirements.

  • How can I save the preview for other than the C: drive files?

    My development machine has multiple drives and network drives. The c: / drive is older, slower and more complete. I use elements, but have used the first over the years. At the time, we could make the program work better by offloading the C: files. I don't see how with P Elements 9.

    Go in Edition > Preferences and change the location of the disks to remove the program.

    I use a lot of FW-800 external references, to migrate my projects between computers and keep my complete set of Scratch disks on the outside.

    I wouldn't choose one of the disks in a network, because of the speed.

  • Change the location of the file thumbnails and original pictures folder to a drive other than the c: drive

    Windows Live Photo Gallery has interesting features, I would like to use, but I have thousands and thousands of photos and cannot afford to use the default locations for the resource files and application folders. My c: drive is a small solid state drive, so I want ALL the resources of the application on another drive.

    C:\Users\John\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Photo Gallery has 6 GB of files it contains.
    I can't find a way to move this place also.
    The app also seems to copy original Images folder in several versions for restore points. How can I prevent that to happen?
    And how to configure this software so that the location of the original images is in a folder and drive that I specify, rather than the default location on the C?
    I would really like to continue to use this software, but I'll drop and throw if I can't get the resources that are located on a different drive...

    Hello

    Thanks for posting this question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    I see you want to know if you can install programs on a drive with no operating system.

    I wish to inform you that this is possible with only specific programs, which give the user an option to choose where the program is installed.

    When a program is installed, it runs in program files, which lies in the operating system drive and can not be moved elsewhere.

    Another reference:

    Microsoft does not support changing the location of the program files
