Change the default location for installing apps / Windows XP

As the size of hardrives increase, more people are using partitions to seperate and store groups of files.


Windows XP uses the C: programmabestanden directory as the default base directory into which new programs are installed. However, you can change the default installation drive and/ or directory by using a Registry hack.

Loop the Register -editor ((Regedit) and go to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersion

Change The Default Location For Installing Apps

Look for the value named ProgramFilesDir. by default,this value will be C:Program Files. Edit the value to any valid drive or folder and XP will use that new location as the default installation directory for new programs.
