The Command Center download path has nothing to do with Cakewalk Content. You may be confusing it with the the "Content Path." I have not tested changing the Content Path. Is the path you are to use on a local drive?
 

Yes, it's on a local/internal drive.
 
C: OS/Software
D: Samples
E: Sonar Projects
 
I'd like to have the Cakewalk Content folder (loops/sounds etc..) redirected from the C: drive to the D: drive.
 
(of note, the CCC download path goes correctly to the D: drive as I instructed it to)

As I mentioned above, I have not tested the Command Center entry but I did use the directory junction solution on previous hardware and it always worked.

Hi. I have my setup (via CCC and SONAR Preferences) installed to two separate SSD' s. I have done this for the best part of last year (X3). I have not used a single Windows command to make it happen (not too windows savvy, I must say)... I have not had a single crash / error with regards to placement (samples or likewise) in ages.
All the best.

I have my Cakewalk Content path on drive D.  I did NOT use mklink or hack the registry ... but I don't remember what I did do.
 
I'll investigate and post back.
 
I also remember the first time I ran CCC, it automatically discovered and populated Content Path to D:\Cakewalk Content

I thought this really should be a straight forward procedure in redirecting the file path, but this part of the CCC doesn't seem to be functioning properly.
 
So far, I've only tried to redirect it to my D: drive........I'll test and see if I get the same error message with my E: drive.

The short lesson is
1) move the folder from C to some other drive
2) Run cmd.exe as administrator and issue the command
mklink /j originalPath newPath
 
I have yet to find an app which does not work with it.
 
If you want the syntax for a specific case, ask. For example
move the "Cakewalk Content' from C: to D: then from the command line issue the command
mklink /j "C:\Cakewalk Content" "D:\Cakewalk Content"
 
 

scook, I tried this but CMD says can not do this when file already exists...
 

This is true. In order for mklink to work the "C:\Cakewalk Content" must be moved not just copied to the new location before issuing the command.

Aahh.  Thx.

As posted above, That is the right way to set up a system. This was how PC audio labs did it when I purchased a system from them.
