I'm a bit embarrassed that I cannot seem to get this working myself, but I'm not as experienced with Windows than I am with Linux.  Grin  So, originally I had the programs installed to my C: Drive, which is my smaller SSD. I then put all of the application info into my D: Drive, but obviously every time I run it it creates a new folder in the C:. How can I set up both Armoury and Bitcoin Core to be installed into my D: Drive? Please make it as simple as possible Smiley Thanks for the help!

(I need it to be set in D:\Program Files (x86)\Armory, and in D:\Program Files\Bitcoin Also I need Armoury to be compatible with the Bitcoin being there. The Armoury FAQ I could not figure out.)

Right click Armory's shortcut. Choose "properties". In the box labeled target, all the way on the right, past what is already there, add
Code:
--datadir=<Armory path> --satoshi-datadir=<bitcoin core path>
Where <Armory path> and <bitcoin core path> are the paths to the respective software's data directories (note this is not the same as the installation directory, and I advise you to not make them the same). Click OK and then start Armory. You should be good to go.

Also, if you downloaded the software from bitcoinarmory.com, that's an outdated version (and website). Go to https://btcarmory.com/ instead.

Says it cannot find the directory.. Not sure about the difference between the Installation and Such. I put it where the armory folder is, and it is still not working.

If you have any spaces you have to surround the path with double quotes(")
