    i heard you can change the file and then it wont be a problem

  • thanks, now after I clean out my computer where do I place the files at?

  • If your wanting to completely move it then Cut and paste it. if its an installed program you would have to uninstal it from the internal and then reinstall it on the external, but it is highly advised that you DO NOT do this.
