Hi Gerry,
Yes, you can just make a junction in Windows. First cut (or copy) your Resources folder to the desired location, then open a command window as administrator and type: mklink /j "C:\Program Files\KV331 Audio\SynthMaster\Resources" "N[new location]:\Resources". Bear in mind, the original folder "Resources" must be missing (or deleted) before you make the junction (that is why I suggested that you cut the folder). If it isn't then you will get an error message. That should magically do it.
Kind regards,
Living Room Rocker

Thank you LRR.
Worked like a charm. However...
Taking screenshots of the C: drive Properties before and after the mlink procedure only saved me about 5Mb with the initial 1G folder size.
So not what I was hoping for.
Thanks anyway
