WINDOWS
Due to space limitations on my C: drive, I would like to change the location of the temporary files.
Step-by-step guide
For the Windows version of Shutter Stream here is what you need to do:
- Move the C:\Users\(yourname)\AppData\Roaming\IconaSys\ShutterStream to your new location, say f:\ShutterStream
- Start a command prompt as an administrator (type cmd.exe, then right click and select Run As Administrator)
From the command prompt, create a junction point as follows (change f:\yournewfolder with your new location):
mklink /J "C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\IconaSys\ShutterStream" "f:\ShutterStream"
Confirm the new location with the "dir" command:
C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\IconaSys>dir Directory of C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\IconaSys\ 11/25/2018 10:10 PM <DIR> . 11/25/2018 10:10 PM <DIR> .. 11/25/2018 10:10 PM <JUNCTION> ShutterStream [f:\ShutterStream] 0 File(s) 0 bytes 3 Dir(s) 97,594,851,328 bytes free
If you are still on XP and not Vista or Windows 7, you don't have mklink, but you can use the junction utility in the same way.
