DrDeathhand Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 Dear Resilio users, I am posting this Topic in two places because I do not know if this is the right location to ask the following question. When I install Resilio Sync (AWESOME PROGRAM!!!) it always installs to the user folder of the account that I am using. I really do not like this. I want to be in control in where I install a program. I want to install this program on an other harddrive (not my C drive) So my question for you is: Is there a way to install Resilio Sync in an other folder / an other drive then the standard place where Resylio Sync installs its self automatically. Awaiting your response. Greetings DrDeathhand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecubitt Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 Hi, Did you ever find out an answer to this? I want to do the same thing. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gane O'dwyer Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 @davecubitt As for now it is impossible to set not a default path for the app installation. Perhaps we will change a behaviour in future. But as a workaround you can run Sync binary with config file that have to be edited ( change storage folder path to another letter drive).

yamlCase Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 I'm running Resilio in config mode and no matter what I try, it still creates a Resilio directory under C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gane O'dwyer Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Stop Sync and edit sync.conf file. You need to change 'storage_path' string and set a new folder path. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stedlj Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 Problem still is valid, really not sure why any program would install to roaming? But it does install to C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Resilio Sync storage_path changes where data is saved not where program is installed.
