Hello,

This is my first time posting here, i signed up today, nice to meet you all!

I'm having difficulties setting my HDD as the primary file location instead of my SSD.
My SSD has Windows 7 on it and i would like to keep it as 'junk free' as possible.

Whenever i download something the program always installs onto the SSD, i really would like to make them install by default onto the HDD.
I've tried looking this up on this forum but can only find very old solutions that suggest tampering with the registry or solutions that i can't follow as i don't see the options that they describe.

I like to think i have at least basic computer knowledge, maybe a little more than "Average Joe", but i also know I'm by no means an expert so please be kind! :)

Thank you.
