Hello! I understand this might sound a bit confusing at first, but I’m here to help. You want everything on your SSD to automatically move to your HDD, while keeping your games and user files on the HDD. You’re thinking about using keyboard shortcuts like Shift+Delete, but you’re unsure if it’s safe. Let’s clarify how this works and what steps you can take.

The HDD is set to C:\. Then install games on the SSD. You can change the order if you prefer.

Occasionally it's not possible, such as when installing software like Microsoft Office.

I update regularly, which is why I’m not keeping up. I’ll check the Reddit thread for more details—it looks promising! Thanks!

Thanks for the help. Fun Fact, I went smashing my head right there because I installed 32bit.
