CHANGE THE DEFAULT LOCATION OF INSTALLING APP.IN WINDOW XP
As the size of hardrives increase, more people are using
partitions to seperate and store groups of files.
XP uses the C:\Program Files directory as the default base
directory into which new programs are installed. However, you can change the
default installation drive and/ or directory by using a Registry hack.
Run the Registry Editor (regedit)and go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
Look for the value named ProgramFilesDir. by default,this
value will be C:\Program Files. Edit the value to any valid drive or folder and
XP will use that new location as the default installation directory for new
programs.
