In this lesson, we are going to relocate our Google Chrome profile folder to another drive.
This will free up space in our C Drive, and will allow for us to not have to add in all of our profiles into Chrome
When we have to do a reinstall.
Download the junction.ext file from here
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896768.aspx
Extract the files, and copy the junction.ext file into you
C:\Windows\System32
Folder. Accept the file copy dialog, and then copy this into a text file.
junction.exe "C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome" "D:\Profile\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome"
(OR)
mklink /J "C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome" "D:\Profile\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome"
Edit it to your correct information
Change the \YOUR_USER_NAME\ to your actual username in windows.
Edit the 2nd location to suite your needs.
Thank You
