Re: Moving Office to another drive

By uninstalling, then reinstalling on the other drive.
You will not lose any data, but a data backup is always recommended.
Assuming you use OL the pst files are located in the documents & settings
grouping and can be moved to another location.

You will have to update Office, unless you used the adminstrative update to
save the files to disk
PS You have moved My Documents to the other drive haven't you? rt click the
icon, properties, move.

I have a large hard drive that is partitioned into 2 small and 1 large
drives. The smallest is my recovery drive, the next is my C drive and the
largest is for storeage and another program file for added programs.
Unfortunately I added Office and few other programs to my C drive in the
beginning and only have 11% free space (after removing programs I never
used). I tried to use a Partition mover program but it said I could only
gain another Gig. How can I move Office from my C drive to my D drive and
not loose any for my files, e-mails, and updates?
