P3D v4 How to change add-on install folders

[UnknownGuest12]

Hi
While keeping v3, now installing v4. Not sure if this as been adressed before but wonder how to change "Prepar3D v4 Add-ons" folder in C/users admin/documents. My C drive is SSD and just 240 Gb. Noticed that F-100 from Milviz installed directly on P3Dv4 folder the way I´m used to, but had to look for c172 and reinstall to know where it went...read about this on their forum, looks like we may change folders, but with so many different answers not sure about what to do.
Hope someone will help...

Best regards

This will show you how easy it is to move these common folders to different drives.

You don't have to move all your windows documents folder, you can have just locate your P3D addons anywhere you wish and control lookup of them through the addons.cfg in the prepar3d folder within your Documents folder.
if you have any A2A aircraft they provide the option to do this way and its simple to mimic it with whatever add on you have be it scenery or aircraft.

The only thing that should be placed in the C:/users admin/documents folder is a tiny .xml file that tells P3D where the actual aircraft is installed. That makes the process not so much of a much... :encouragement:
