	Hi, You can't really move existing backups (both local backups of your files, and the backups of your buddies you store), but you can make new backups get saved to D: drive instead. To do this: 1. Open BuddyBackup 2. Click Tools, Options 3. Click Advance, Advanced Settings 4. Under "Backup Location" Enter a folder where you want the backups to exist (E.g. "D:\BuddyBackup") 5. Press OK 6. Click File, Exit 7. Restart BuddyBackup From now on, all new backups will get saved to "D:\BuddyBackup". The existing backups will still exist in the old location, unfortunately. We do plan to allow moving backups fully at some point. If you really want to move all your backups, then the only option is to start from scratch: you'd uninstall BuddyBackup and choose "Yes remove backups" when prompted (to delete everything). Then, re-install and immediately change the backup location as described above. Regards, John
