How can I install storyline to d drive, not c?

Hi Jong Min

when you download the zip or .exe file can you move it to the d: drive before you install?  Just a thought

I move to the d: drive.... but it's installed to c....    T_T

Hello Jon!

By default, Articulate Storyline 2 will install in the following directory, depending on your version of Microsoft Windows:

• 32-bit Windows: C:\Program Files
• 64-bit Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)

Here is information on how to change the installation location.

Hey Emily, 
Does the Link for changing the Installation Location hold good?
I tried to install in the other folder bus unfortunately no luck.

Sam

Hi Sameer,

That link is for Storyline 2 - is that what you're using currently? If you're using Articulate 360, and looking to deploy it to a different install location our Support team can offer some other ideas around a silent install. 

I also have a 2 TB D:/ drive and a 500 GB C:/ drive.  Does anyone know if there is a way to switch the drives so the C:/ is the larger drive?  I don't want to buy a new computer, so wondering if there are workarounds.  I run Storyline on my D:/ drive and maybe that is why it shuts down or locks up frequently, but I just don't have the space on C:/

If it's a single device (not 2 physical hard drives), changing the allocation for drives C & D is handled by re-partitioning the physical drive into volumes which are different from what they currently are. Partitioning and re-partitioning isn't for the faint of heart, and requires a user with local admin privileges to run (you can REALLY muck things up if you aren't careful). Here's the basic process from Microsoft:

Manage basic volumes > Extend a basic volume

That said, 500GB is quite a bit. Do you know how much free space you have left?

Hi Jeniffer, 

Here's how you can install Articulate 360 applications on a custom directory on your machine. You'll want to make sure that your Articulate 360 Desktop app is updated to have this option available. 

Hope this helps!

PERFORM. A. BACKUP. FIRST. I cannot stress that enough.

With drive space cheaper than water, and widely-available cloud storage from companies like Box and Dropbox, backing up your organization's intellectual property is not nearly as cost-prohibitive as it used to be. Add to that, with hard drive sizes as large as they have become, you have a LOT more to lose in the event of a drive failure.
