Title: Changing the position of the block chain.
Post by: DeaDTerra on November 19, 2012, 07:37:55 PM
Hello :)
I am running out of space on my C drive and would therefor like to move the block chain onto my H drive.
I am currently using the latest satoshi client,
How would I proceed to do as such?

Nvm: problem solved using
mklink /d "C:\Users\username \AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin" "H:\bitcoindata"

You can also use -datadir= when launching the client.
