I haved founded some info here http://www.windows-commandline.com/2009/07/change-appli...

As with Windows XP, we can change the location by editing registry key too.

To change local application data folder we need to run the below command.

reg.exe add “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders” /v “Local Appdata” /t REG_SZ /d/f

To change roaming application data folder the command is:

reg.exe add “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders” /v Appdata /t REG_SZ /d/f

If you see any issues in changing application data folder location please write it in the comments section below.
