Agreed - Is there any way to mark the SD card as “non-removable” to “trick” the installer into installing on it?
I don't see that there would be much in the way of files that could be moved,
Not sure if I was clear on what I was referring to. If the installer cannot be tricked to install AVAST to D:, I was wanting to know if I could install it to C:, then copy all the files from (maybe) C:\Program Files\AVAST to D:\Program Files\AVAST - then edit the registry so all entries point to D:\ rather than C:, so it will run from and update to D:\ rather than C:\ ?
Currently on my HDD Program Files, avast software folder is 160MB, which isn't excessive (even on an 8GB SSD)
You obviously have not owned one of these Netbooks. I have WinXP on it. Free space (with AntiVir installed on D:), fluctuates between maybe 200 and maybe 20 MB - depending on how long it’s been since I have run CCleaner on it (several times a week). Most Windows updates fail to install from insufficient drive space. I’m hoping I could free up 160MB or so for the temporary install - but I might need to transfer the files from the desktop PC instead.
Thanks again for helping me.
