Hello. I want to move programs to another folder (the same drive) without reinstalling them. When I just move it shortcuts don't work and it want me to accepting something when I want to open the program. Is there any easy way to do this?
 
Solution
A program installation usually makes quite a few entries in the registry, referring to what folder the program is installed in. To get it right, you will have to reinstall.
Long ago, under DOS, you often could just move programs. Not anymore.
