So i noticed when messing with a ram chache that when using the sim most of the drive activity isn’t on the drive where I have all the main sim files installed but on my slower c drive which contains the Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe files I want to know is it possible to move all these f…

DORRAGER: Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe files Hi if you installed MSFS via the store there is an option to move installations via APP’s and Features. I have not used it to move MSFS, but I have used it to move other Apps before now. Settings > Apps & Features > Slelect MSFS and y…

Yeah that only moves the main game files, as already previously done that when I first added a new drive. thanks though.

I can’t view that it says it doesn’t exist or is private. I want to move those additional files that get sent to OS’s drive which are shown in the 2nd pic.

Hmmm if you type in the search move to new drive , the first thread that comes up seems to be talking about want you want to achieve. [image] Move MSFS2020 to New Drive Install, Performance & Graphics Has anyone moved the install to a new drive? If so can you explain? On …

I dont think they are actually still on the old drive, but are replaced with “shortcut” to new location. someone correct me i…

Yeah appears so. assume that means they aren’t really stored on the c: drive then. [Desktop Screenshot 2021.02.09 - 01.16.57.62_LI] is also these files but also has the shortcut icon on page before so guess they aren’t actually still on that drive then. the same folder does show on my drive A: an…

I just moved mine over two days ago and didn’t bother to check the drive activity during the sim. just checked now and all seems to be fine. minimal activity if any on the original (c) drive… [drive activity]

Is your Operating system(windows) installed on the same drive you moved the sim onto? By the way have you tried using a ram cache with your 64gb ram I had a nice fps and smoothness boost after going upto 64gb and setting 32gb ram cache.
