Move index temp folder on windows 7
The index service, along with its habit to slowdown the system, can take a HUUUUUGE space on C drive when its database is growing.
By default the database is located in the hiiden folder “programdata” c:\programdata\microsoft\search
We can disable indexation to save space and ressource, but indexation is usefull, so we better move that big folder somewhere else.
Hopefully it is possible without tricky settings…
HOW TO?
move indexation temp file:
– start / search: indexing options
– click “advanced”, click “select new”, go to D drive and create new folder “index” (that will move all the search database to D drive )
