Can I change where my temp files, such as waveforms, etc, are stored? Would like to be able to put them on a separate drive from th C:\ drive.

I changed both the User Variables and System Variables to my Z:\ drive (Z:\TempFiles). The system temps files sure enough went there, but the PowerDirector temp files still go to CUsers\Jerry\AppData\Roaming\CyberLink\PowerDirector\13. Did I do it correctly?

Powerdirector seems to be hard coded to use the Windows User area.

I do not know if it is possible to move the User Folder in Windows.

I am going to do a search to see what I find.

Edit: I found this information. Maybe this will work for you. There are other methods in Windows.

Re-direct a folder.
