Installing Google Chrome to a different path/folder/drive/location

Hi & thanks for any replies,

I have tried DL'ing the stand alone installer and the Google Pack(no longer). Doesn't matter what I do it installs to Appdata-grrr. I have read all the reasons google installs to this folder; none of which apply to my situation.

Also, I apologize if this topic has been addressed here before. I did multiple searches and found nothing.

At this point, I'm ready to go in and hack it out w/ the proper directions.

Thanks again for any help.

Thanks for your reply!

Unfortunately, that discussion is a bit dated & concerns Google Earth, which installs to %root%/Program Files/. Unless I missed something?

Google Chrome installs to a hidden folder %root%\Users\User Name\AppData\Local\Google. I cannot find any way to change this. In the Google Forums, "work arounds" have been posted; but, apparently deleted before I had a chance to read them.

same problem here ?? i' ll tell you if i found something
Btw is hard to enter this forum

change chrome Directory

i didn't have time to read it right now but i thing there is some answer but first one didn't work

okay thanks why not does Chromium have text to speech ? i don't really like chrome it just for a good free text to speech solution for french sentences
and because its not in the default W7 directory opera didn't detect chrome and i can' t jump smoothly to chrome
this chrome problem seem to be old ( like 2009 at least ) but on my other laptop i didn't had this problem so Kinda strange
