    moving software programmes I have installed.

    I use win 7. Not enough space to install win 10 on C drive.
    I wish to move some of the programmes I have installed or downloaded to an external drive.
    How do I do this please?

    You will have to reinstall the programs onto windows 10 once you install that. If you copy the data files those programs have created to an external drive (eg pics, documents, etc) you can always copy them back to your system drive.

    BTW: Recommend doing a clean install of Windows 10. IE dont update from Windows 7.

      If I delete elements 11 will it only delete the programme?

        Please, no need to quote previous posts, only adds to clutter.

        If you are referring to Adobe elements then yes.

              Thanks for getting back to us, we cannot leave threads open indefinitely and for the following reason/s, forum procedure is to ask for an update when a thread remains unanswered for three days, if still no answer after a further two days a second update request is post along with notice that the thread will be closed if not replied to within 48hrs, we have to have such a procedure to keep the forums in order as some folk will start threads on five or six forums and then abandon all but one of them.

              Rather than us keep asking you for an update all the time we will close the thread and reopen it when you are ready, PM a member of staff when you are able to afford the issue some of your time.
