Decided, with all the ongoing updates for MSFS, to install my Orbix library to another drive to free up space in my MSFS drive. Well, did that. Amount of space I saved was ZERO!
Happens that if you choose another location, all that happens is the library just doubles up in both places. i.e. the Orbix library AND the Community folder.
Not much point to this is there, ORBIX!
Would be better to direct your question to Orbx via their forum:
Good to know I was going to do that but thanks for the heads up
You haven’t followed the instructions properly as shown in ORBX Central. Anyway it’s easier to just store the scenery in a directory of your choice and then create a symbolic link to the Community directory.
Do yourself a favor – you won’t regret it —
In my install Orbix installed the content to the location that I defined and places links (shortcuts) in the community folder.
That’s because you did not follow the instructions correctly 
Always helps to read the instructions manual/documentation
Except for the fact that the links in the community folder are the same size as your location folder
No instructions in Orbix Central
Well in fact they aren’t. They are symbolic links. They just point to the original folder location.
They aren’t files in the same way that a shortcut is a file and the size of itself is what you see when you view its properties.
Symbolic links have a small footprint but what you see when you look at a symbolic link properties is the size of the target folder which could be on an entirely different physical drive.
