Keith,

It depends on the application. Some applications, like the Windows desktop
OS's, install various files in various locations. Others do not so
theoretically you can simply move them from Main Memory to SD.

My .02: I've found it easier just to reinstall! :-D That eliminates the
guess work and because P/PC applications are so small, it doesn't take too
long to install them again.

Regards,
