Moving AD2 Sound Data files

AD and AD2 both load their Sound Data samples onto Drive C by default (and I don't remember seeing any choices to set this when I installed them). My drive C: (and SSD) is now getting full so I'd like to move the Sound Data folders to my streaming audio drive (E:). Has anyone tried the mklink command to make a symbolic link at the original location to point to the new location with AD and/or AD2? Does it work with those programs? It does with Dimension Pro and I'd like to try it with AD/AD2.

    I'm pretty sure in the XLN installer there is an option to move your sample content to another drive.  I'd use that.

    When you run the installer, just go to Advanced Options (not sure of the exact title) and change the directory path you want it to be in.
