August 18, 20205 yr Hi There Does anyone know if it is possible to move your install to a new drive? Downloaded and installed fine, but to drive C. I would have preferred it on a different drive P3D v4.5 MSFS2020 Hisense 50" 4K TV Ryzen 9600x 64gb DDR5 6000mhz, Asrock B650m HDV/M.2 Gigabyte 16gb 9070XT, Thermalright Aqua Elite 240mm 2TB NVMe Boot/FS2020 Drive, 2TB NVMe P3D Drive.

September 9, 20205 yr Didnt work, it moved a load of stuff but left the original install as well and when going to play it just loads of the original...useless anyone got it figured out?
September 11, 20205 yr Sorry I should have said...Microsoft Store version. I have now uninstalled and then re-installed to the new drive and guess what?...it still left all the original files on my old drive and insists on loading the old copy whilst ignoring the new install....FFS what an abortion of an install process they managed to create
September 11, 20205 yr Hello, Rename or remove your Fs folder located on C:\somewhere. Then launch Fs, it will ask for the destination. This is what I did, I copied all data from C:\path to my fs folder to E :\path to my new fs folder... renamed C:\ ... msfs folder ... and it worked ! I then removed the ms fs folder located on C !
