My computer has two hard drives totally about 40 with the default drive C with about 7 GB and the second hard drive D with 30+GB. I can files on D but all the programs seem to go through C even when I try to move them. Is there anything I can do to make the larger drive the default so that I stop getting warning messages

Hi Maura,

Some programs are persistent in being installed along with the operating
system. Try this for the rest:

Change Program Download Directory (Line 82)

Tip:

Increase Internet Explorer Downloads to 10 (Line 55)
