Can I do this?

ramairluvr · 12-09-2008, 08:05 PM

I want to free up some space on my computer's hard drive. Can I copy and paste OOTP to an external hard drive then redirect my desktop icon to start the game from my external drive or does the program have to stay on my C drive where it was originally placed? I am not a computer guy so if I can do this, are there any special things I have to do other than a simple copy and paste like will I have to redirect the path for all my ballparks/logos/ballcaps/etc? Thanks.

I'd be curious myself. I may try it after my Single A season is over. I have a flash drive so I may try that first. It is USB so I'll see if that presents a problem.

Let me know how it goes if you give it a try. I am going to hold off for now.
