I tried moving the location of the User Profile to D, and made a mess.
Then I tried moving it to D at installation. Better. But now I've found that'll be difficult for system images.

How can I make C:\User\[name]\[my own folders] point to D:\[name]\[my own folders]?
i.e., C:\User\MiraNova\Commissions > D:\MiraNova\Commissions
