P3DV5 on SSD drive other than C drive

Featured Replies

Hallo...back again after a 17th month layoff. Yes, I'm an old timer - got my gliding wings with ATC in 1961; PPL in South Africa in 1982. 

But I have a huge problem that nobody seems able to sole...the solution must be there!

I have 3 SSDs C:drive; E and F.    C = OS 222GB   (37GB free)

                                                       E = 222GB (109GB free)

                                                       F = 931 GB (931GB free)

When I install P3D 4 or P3D 5 to F drive, everything goes to C drive! I know there must be space for P3D OS on C, but this seems ridiculous. I have tried this multiple times after reading instructions both here and elsewhere.

How can I install P3D v4 and v5 on F drive, where I still have room for ORBX addons, etc?

Thank you, from a frustrated old timer (80 next year)

 

 

 

 

Hallo Tom, always installed P3D on drive F:, and never had issues with that. I'll install it again tomorrow and see what's a reason. If i remember correctly, you can change the offered position in C:\Program Files\... but it does not save it. I believe there is an OPTIONS button down on the left which gives way for a new path (I believe...). We'll see tomorrow. 

Kind regards, Fritz

Tom, just tried again, and even if directed to networked drives / directories P3D installs in the place commanded via OPTIONS. Hmmm, in case of drive F: not correctly formatted or write protected you'd get a message. Please just send me a note how it gets, i hope for your success. 👋👋 Fritz
