If you’ve been gaming on Valve’s Steam service for a decent amount of time, you’ve probably heard of Steam Mover. It’s a great tool for transferring your multi-gigabyte Steam games to different hard drives on your system, in case your primary hard drive is running out of space (or bursting at the seams).What we love about Steam Mover—and just briefly touched upon it the last time we talked about the app—is that its usefulness isn’t limited to Steam games. Oh no. The app can create symbolic links on your system for any folder you want; you’re not just limited to \steamapps\.Symbolic links, in plain EnglishA symbolic link is kind of like a signpost. It tells Windows that the contents of Folder X are actually in Folder Y, even though we’re going to keep Folder X around for a number of reasons.For example, suppose you have an archive folder of RAW photographs in your standard “Pictures” folder in Windows. RAW pictures take up a ton of room, and you’d like to move them somewhere else. However, you don’t want to always have to be bouncing between hard drives in your photo editing tool of choice. You could solve the latter with shortcuts, sure.

One or multiple apps or folders you want to restore and click "Restore".3. You will see a pop-up message to confirm forcibly closing running applications when restoring starts. Click "OK" to begin the process.ConclusionFollowing the above steps, you can use the "APP Mover" tool in AOMEI Partition Assistant to easily and quickly move apps and folders in Windows. This feature is mainly used in the below situations: Your system drive is quite small-sized and the C: has no enough free space and there is no larger hard drive/SSD to replace the current drive. In this case, you can move applications and folders on C: to another hard drive to free up C: space. There are too many applications installed and running on C: or there are too many folders on C, which makes the computer run slower and slower. You can use this feature to move applications and folders from C: to another drive to get a better computer performance.Besides, Partition Assistant also offers other useful features, for example, migrate OS to SSD, and resize partition, and so on.Notes: To ensure the apps run properly, please don't move or delete files in the source and target directories. You can see operation records of app movement in "Manage/Restore"-->"View Logs". If you move the installation directory of moved applications manually to another location, AOMEI Partition Assistant might be unable to detect it. You need to select the app and then re-load the current location under "Manage/Restore"-->"Repair Location", then you can do the restore. After you move the application to another location successfully, you will still see a shortcut of the installation directory in the original location. This will not take up disk space and please do not delete it.FAQs:Q: Why do I get a pop-up window "Moving the C: Users folder is not supported.
