from your post "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local and then go to Properties/Location", it appears as though you selected the "administrator" account to move and not the 'other' user account. I was under the impression you wished to move an alternate account's local folder.
I may have mistyped the username. My personal account is administrador and the built-in account is administrator. I wish to change the personal account. When I log into the built-in account, the Location tab does not appear. When I log into my personal account, I get the error that the 3 LOG files cannot be moved which causes the Move to be canceled. Hope that clarifies it. Thanks

Is there a chance that you can access the application and change the options or settings to move these log files? Or can you delete these log files?
The log files that are causing the problem are, I believe, system files. I've tried deleting them. I logged onto my computer with my PEVista boot disk and deleted all 3 Log files. I then rebooted the computer, but the files had already been recreated by the time I attempted the Move.
The application that concerns me is SyncBackSE. It insists on saving profiles and log files in a subfolder of AppData\Local. That is my main motivation for relocating it to the E:\ partition
Thanks
I finally found help from the company that sells my backup program called SyncBackSE using the mklink command to move the profile data to the E:\ partition. Here are the steps I utilized:
- Rename c:\users\username\appdata\local\2brightsparks\syncback to syncback.old
- Copy contents of syncback.old to e:\data\syncbackse\profiles
- Open command prompt as admin and browse to: c:\users\username\appdata\local\2brightsparks
- Type: mklink /d SyncBack e:\data\syncbackse\profiles
- Open SyncBackSE and modify profile then verify new date of ini file in E:\
