Not enough space to download software

allthedoyles

Have a new HP Scanner and want to download the software for it .

So it downloads to a certain point and then tells me that there is not enough space to complete download .

It automatically defaults to download to C drive .

My C drive has only 10gb and 426mb free - whereas my D drive has 64gb free and 60gb free .


Can I change the default , so that it downloads automatically to D Drive ?

PC is win XP .

I have looked at all installed programmes , and there are none in ther that I can delete to free up space in C drive .

So ideally I need to install this 450mb in D drive .

Use Ccleaner to free up space.

A 10GB system partition is too small nowadays. It's not always possible to install programs to another partition, especially with drivers. You may have to look at repartitioning the disk.

Googling would have been quicker and easier but anyway here's a link to change the default windows download location.
