How can I move Fusion 360 to my D drive?

[Anonymous]

My C drive is a SSD and is running low on space.  Can I move Fusion 360 to my D drive, and if so how?

Hi @Anonymous,

Welcome to the Fusion 360 community!

Thanks for posting.  Unfortunately it is not possible to move or install Fusion 360 into a specified drive at this time.

I think the below web page helps with a workaround.  Please check the article and hopefully this helps!

The memory hog was Windows—it was archiving all previous updates. Once I fixed that I have enough room to run Fusion360.

Hello,

This seems rather inept. I absolutely do not, will not, install applications on my OS (Windows) drive. Not even the Program Data or User folders live there. They have dedicated partitions on a separate drive and are linked. (Think System Variables)

There must be a way to select where the software will reside or the product is unusable for many people I know who run advanced OS installations. Will be a shame if I have to pass up this product.

How is there still not a fix for this? I love fusion for so many reasons but the amount of time I have spent trying to figure this out is stupid. Literally a location change is all I need. 

A sing I am old I suppose. 🙂

It's almost like this feature has been highly requested, a feature that has been wildly standard since the 1990s. It's exceptionally common for workstations to have a small boot drive and large storage drive, but how did Fusion's programmers think that installation, directory, and backup folders should ALL be on the same boot drive?

Do you people actually use your products?
