Can plugins be installed to drives other than C: for AE and/or PPRO?

hello,
i am running win 7 64 bit
os is on drive c:
page file is on drive d:
scratch disk is on drive e:
media cache is on drive f:
footage is on drive g:, h:
final render is on drive i:
i have an esata external enclosure
with 4 more drives
i would like to install video copilot and red giant plugins on drive j:
and install some boris plugins on drive k:
it has been said that adobe programs like to be on c:
my question is am i setting myself up for trouble
by installing plugins (and the subsequent footage associated with these plugins)
on drives other than c:?
(i am not comfortable setting up any kind of raid yet
so everything is being treated as single drives)
(also, all drives are 10k)
thanks in advance,
j

hello Harm,
thanks for the answers
gonna spend the day moving files around
clean is good
as far as the memory, i'll figure that one out next
is overclocking memory that easy ?
actually if i could ask another question:
with a stock i7 930 at 2.8Ghz
and 16gb DDR3 1600Mhz 9-9-9-24 memory
what are stable results to expect for an oc'ed cpu
and memory running at 1600?
would oc'ing the cpu be worth the extra 'wear and tear'?
i'm editing avchd .mts files
(most threads state that avchd is cpu intensive)
so far i'm very happy with cs5
again, i more trust answers from within this forum
than googling stuff and checking reviews, what not
thanks again and good morning,
j

How can I download to a drive other than C?

I want to download and install all programs and features to drive E.
Here's what I did:
Downloaded the Adobe Application Manager onto drive E and let it install.
The Adobe Application Manager installed onto drive C
          (I didn't notice any options to change it's install location)
When it opened I clicked on "install" next to Photoshop CS6
it gave me the error:
               Installation Failed
               Insufficient disk space. Please clear space on C:\ and try again. (-30)
I went into preferences and changed the install location to a Program Files folder located on disk E
Clicked "install" next to Photoshop again
Same error message
I figure that it might be trying to download it to drive C before installing it to drive E, if that's the case then how can I change that so that it both downloads AND installs on drive E?

Some installers let you choose the install location (e.g. Adobe Reader), but others don't (I don't know about Photoshop, but I found this http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/install-uninstall-photoshop-cs2.html - see 5.).
To clear some space on the C: drive try http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner

AD snapshot - how to mount/recover when DB is installed to drive other than C?

When I installed AD, I put everything on the D: (DB, logs, sysvol)
I am trying to utilize the AD snapshot feature. I can take snapshots and delete them all day long. I cannot however, mount and access them. I started off with trying
Ashley McGlone's function set but after it failed it mount I contacted him and he said it was not written to handle AD that was not installed on C:.
So I regressed back to the NTDSUTIL commands in which his functions were written to handle in the background. I cleared all snapshots and manually took one.
Here you can see even though I took ONE snapshot, two show up: one for C and one for D
I went ahead and mounted both at this point. Then tried running the following command and this is the error I get:
I also tried running that command on both snapshots that were mounted.
Has anyone else successfully used the AD snapshot utility when AD is not installed using the default locations?
Is this action even supported?

Yes this works and is supported, try running this in a standard cmd shell, not in powershell, powershell requires paths to be accessed with .\

Installing on drive other than C:

We're trying to install "Sneak Preview SAP NetWeaver 04 Java Edition" onto a Win2000 server and it seems to only want to install on the C: drive. Is there a way to override this to a different drive letter?
Thanks in advance

Dear Steve,
Just maually type the other drive name e.g D: or E: it will overrite that C: but before that make sure your other drives are active.
For more information regarding installation pls follow the link below although it is for windows 2003 server but the steps will remain same:-

Installing on drive other than C drive

I am new to the Cloud. At present paying for Dreamweaver. I would like to reinstall to a different drive but don't remember getting option in first installation. Anyone have a clue ?

, Yes I see it and as I mentioned earlier "perhaps I wasn't following you correctly". I wasn't, I was looking at "Preferences" in the Dreamweaver program itself. Thanks for the screenshot and time taken to help.. I changed to a different folder and drive and then downloaded trial Acrobat and it still loaded program in the C drive. I guess that option is for files to be synced to the clouds. Apparently Adobe doesn't give an option of where you want a program installed. I think some programs like Photoshop can be installed and then have the program and related files moved to another folder and work just fine. Some programs like Dreamweaver cannot. Must have something to do with the different amounts of communication needed between Win or Mac and programs when loading. Thanks again

WSUS Repair: Can I not use a drive other than C:?

I used the wizard to move the WSUS folders from the C: drive to the SBS2008's D: drive in order to recover C: drive disk space as so many others have had to do. Now ofcourse, the system says it no longer is installed as designed and updates to domain
computers no longer works.
There is a good TechNet article on how to "Repair Windows Server Update Services" but it assumes the WSUS directory must be created on C: which ofcourse is not what I want.
I appreciate there are SQL issues involved here, but if I simply specify D: as the partition to create the WSUS directory, substitute D:\WSUS in the wsussetup.exe parameters (from the section in that article headed 'To manually recover Windows Server
Update Services), will this work?
Thanks in advance
Jerome

Hi Jerome,
à
if I simply specify D: as the partition to create the WSUS directory, substitute D:\WSUS in the wsussetup.exe parameters (from the section in that article headed 'To manually
recover Windows Server Update Services), will this work?
I suggest that you should follow the step “create a directory called WSUS on the C: partition” to
repair WSUS as described in this TechNet article (Repair Windows Server Update Services). It will help us to avoid unexpected issues.

I used the wizard to move the WSUS folders from the C: drive to the SBS2008's D: drive in order to recover C: drive disk space as so many others have had to do.
After repairing WSUS, please refer to following article and check if help you to
move WSUS Content and Database Files to a Different Volume.

How can I install to a drive other than C?

I installed the CS6 Master Collection trial version. During the installation, I specified a destination folder on my D: drive (C: is a small SSD drive meant to hold only Windows).
For the 32-bit versions of the programs, the shortcuts created in the Start Menu point to the D: location I specified during installation, but clicking on them gets me a "file not found" error, because the actual programs were placed on the C: drive. They work if I copy the installed Adobe folder and its full contents over to the appropriate D: location.
The 64-bit versions are a different mess: Unlike with the 32-bit versions, the installer placed the 64-bit versions of the programs in the specified D: drive folder, but when I attempt to start the programs, I get the "Configuration Error: Please uninstall and reinstall the program; Error: 1" message. Presumably this is because some of the configuration files or settings the programs are looking for are actually pointing to locations on the C: drive, where the installer put them despite my directions. But I have no idea which files or settings they are, or how to find them.
How can I fix these configuration errors and get the 64-bit versions working?
If anyone from Adobe sees this, can you please fix the installer so that it installs the ENTIRE package where I specified, and that all the various pieces installed know where the rest of the pieces are in a non-C drive installation?
My system:
Windows 7 SP1
Intel Core i7, 8GB RAM
C drive: 60GB SSD (Windows system files)
D drive: 1TB HDD (All other programs and files, including my Windows User folders)

Yes, I have redirected my User folder to the D: drive.
I know that some shared components must reside on the C: drive; that's fine. I just don't have room for the entire installation on there.
The real issue here is that, when a drive other than C: is selected as the destination, the CS6 package installs into a broken state every time, out of the gate, on my system. Some components get installed to D: and some to C:, but the various components of the programs seem confused about what exists where, as shown below:
I select a folder on D: as the destination folder for the install, and here is what I get:
64-bit versions of the package -- Program files are installed to the D: drive as specified, but attempting to start them results in a configuration error message stating that the program must be uninstalled and reinstalled, and lists "Error code: 1".
32-bit versions of the package -- Program files are installed to the C: drive against what I specified. The shortcuts installed in the Start menu for the 32-bit versions point to the locations where these program files SHOULD be, on the D: drive. If the Adobe folder containing the program files is copied over to the correct location on D:, these programs function normally with no errors.
I have the 32-bit versions working by copying the program files from C: to D:. I just want to get the 64-bit versions working as well.
Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated; I'm really looking forward to testing the CS6 suite on my system!

Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

Hello there,
Welcome to Adobe Community. Yes it can be installed on a different drive. Though some of the files installed by it will still be installed on C: drive.
When you run the installer, use 'Change destination folder' at the bottom of the panel
If you already have Adobe Reader installed on the C: drive, you must uninstall it before installing a new version on a different location.
Thanks!

How can I install Adobe Reader 11 to a drive other than C:\?

I downloaded Reader 11, but at no point during the installation process am I prompted for an installation location. How can I install this to a drive other than the C:\? I keep my C:\ and data storage drive separate so in the event the OS crashes I won't lose my data. I have limited storage capacity since I'm on a laptop so I didn't make my C:\ very large, so that I would have more room for my D:\. Any suggestions?
Sincerely,
LT Gannon

having data on a different drive is a good idea. installing programs on a drive different from you os containing drive is generally not a good idea. but if you have the expertise and are sure of what you're doing:
mac: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/mac/11.x/11.0.00/misc/
win: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5515

Can you install CS5 anywhere other than the C Drive?

I already have CS5 successfully installed on my computer and it works perfectly.
The problem I have is that I'm running out of space on my C drive. (Currently 864 MB Free of 64.2 GB).
After a quick look at the stuff I have on this drive, it seem's to make sense to me to move Photoshop to a different drive, and regain over 10 GB of space back instantly. I already have a dedicated Photoshop drive on my computer (H:) which contains all my Fonts, Actions, Brushes etc. It would be awesome if I could install it there instead.
However, where computers are concerned, I know that nothing is ever as simple as it seem's.
Could someone let me know what sort of problem's I could expect from doing this, or even if it is possible to do.
Just out of interest, I started the CS5 installer earlier today whilst still having Photoshop installed just to see if it was something it would let me do. (I have no intention of uninstalling Photoshop from my C drive until I know if it's doable).
As you can see from the image above it shows that I already have Photoshop installed and it shows the location (Highlighted for you in Yellow).
I have tried to change the drive letter to H: but I cannot change the text within that box. I was wondering if that location only relates to the already existing copy of Photoshop. And therefore I would need to uninstall the existing copy before I can change this. Or will that location always be C:\Program Files\Adobe regardless.
In short, Is it possible to install CS5 to a drive other than C: without there being any problems?
Also is it possible to install 2 copies of CS5 onto 2 different drives? So I can test the new one before finally getting rid of the old one.
Any help or advice will be gratefully received.

You would, of course, have to uninstall the current copy before installing Photoshop in a different place.
You can only install one copy of the same version at one time on the same PC.
You're not going to be able to install it in another place just to see if all went well before uninstalling it from drive C:.
And yes, choosing an alternate drive and location into that field with the little folder icon during an install will allow you to install Photoshop on another drive. That allows you to keep the better part of a gigabyte of software off the C: drive.
Keep in mind that there are a number of things (e.g., Adobe common software) that will still and only install on drive C: however, and there's nothing you can do to change those locations.

Can I instal Reader to a drive other than C:?

Is someone able to tell me how to instal Reader to a drive other than C:?
I am trying to free up space on C: and prefer to load the Reader files into another drive, but I did not see an option to do that when downloading, and the installer just starts automatically without prompting for a target folder.

Use the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and click on Change Destination Folder

Install Adobe CC apps on a drive other than C?

Can I install CC apps on a drive other than C? If so, how?

It does indeed:
I haven't tried it either, in fact I've always heard that the smart thing is to install in the default location. But the option is there. Keep in mind that a lot of stuff will go to the user folder on the C drive in any case, so you can't keep it entirely off C.
Normally I'd ask "why?" - but SSDs have brought back space restrictions, at least for a while. I'm getting a little worried for my 240 GB system/apps SSD, which is very nearly full pretty soon.

Installing Reader 10.1 to a drive OTHER THAN 'C' drive

Hi. Can anyone provide guidance on how to install Adobe Reader 10.1 to a hard drive other than the C drive?
At no point during the installation process is the user given the option to select a drive letter. I need space on my C drive and want to install this rather sizeable utility on my E drive.
My O/S is XP Pro 2002 (SP 3)
Thanks,
SD

I assume you are downloading the Reader using the download manager, aren't you.
Just download the EXE or the MSI installer from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.0/ and execute e.g. either of the following files:
AdbeRdr1010_en_US.exe
AdbeRdr1010_en_US.msi
Then you should be able to change the destination folder...
