  1. thank you for the follow up. I started googling for solutions after wanting to transfer my downloads (227gb) to a different drive while reorganizing where things are. Pretty much how I found myself here. I made it work with a symbolic link, but that's not something people are going to just think of. I realize each platform and client has their own way of doing things, and really, Viveport is pretty decent considering it's been around a fraction of the time. So while it's not going to make me turn away from Viveport, such a feature would certainly bring it another step in a positive direction. In general, I'm happy with Viveport though, and I've been with it since the beginning, so I hope to keep seeing it mature and grow. Anyway, thanks, and hopefully down the line such a feature can be added.
  2. Why is it that 2 years later, this is still a problem? Steam has the ability to move games to another drive. Origin has the ability to move games to another drive. Battle.net has the ability to move games to another drive. Oculus has the the ability to move games to another drive. Windows 10 has the ability to move Microsoft Store games to another drive! Uplay lets you locate locate installed games, so you can copy, uninstall, and re add them without downloading. Spent about 2 hours trying to find a real fix, but I couldn't find anything. Closest I got was finding install references in appdata\local\htc\viveport\installed_apps.json and changed the install locations, but when you launch Viveport it immediately goes back to the way it was. So there's something else somewhere, but I can't find it. You've basically got 2 options with Viveport... Completely re install games or if you were saavy enough to think about it, create a symbolic link. If your Viveport games are on C:\Vive and you want to move them to E:\Vive... Exit out of Viveport Copy the contents of the C:\Vive folder to E:\Vive Rename C:\Vive (example: C:\Vivedelete) Run Command Prompt mklink /D C:\Vive E:\Vive Launch Viveport and then launch any game/app to be sure it worked. Delete C:\Vivedelete (or whatever you renamed the folder to) Hopefully somebody who develops the Viveport app will realize the ability to move your games and apps to another drive is much needed. Especially when people use SSD for the OS, but larger HDDs for everything else.
