Post by Woimiow »

I want try DP 8 64bit. I have win7 Home Premium and if i want install DP, it automatically install to C\Program Files\... how can i change installation path? I want disc C clear as possible from programs mess, and do not want have program on C. Now i canceled installation and some mess from DP i have still on C.

I uninstall not complete installation of DP, and there is still some files from DP, where and how i can locate this files?

Hi,

I faced the same problem few months ago. The default folder is C: Program Files (x86) for the 32 bits version and C: Programs for the 64 bits one.
I think there is no way to change the location before the installation.
At the end of the install process, I simply cut & pace the DP8 folder. It works.
Usually, it is not advisable to do such a thing but concerning DP, it's ok! :D

Thanks for reply. This is interesting, but in my opinion it is not correct from developer of DP. I want full control where my application will be installed and i never discover program, with no control installation, if yes, i cant remember. And most of them have installation info progress where are all files installed. Maybe sonar have some folders which i cant change the path. I hope, motu in future change this..
