Can’t EZKeys 2 be installed on the D drive?

[Ken Kasriel]

Hi, I’d understood that we could install EZKeys2 , or at least the library, on the D Drive. My C: drive is nearly full. I used the Toontrack Product manager and the installation wizards it led me to, and was never asked, when installing the program or the library, where to install it, or if I weanted a custom setup etc. Instead it just installed everyting to my C drive, leaving me with about 500 MB free. I need that C drive space back; if I cannot install at least the library on the D drive I cannot use this product. Can anyone advise please?

EZkeys version: 2.0.0
Operating system: Windows 10

Hi there,

The samples and MIDI can be moved to another location/drive.

Here’s the link from to the manual on how to do that;

Thanks. But I’d already been there, which is why I am asking here. I’m on Windows. The manul only mentions this for Mac.

I followed all the steps described in the manual.

The manual then goes on to say “In the Installation Type part of the Mac EZkeys 2 Software installer, you get the option to customize the install, this is useful if you want to only install specific plug-in types.”

Below that text they show two screengrabs of what I suppose are the installation dialogues from the Mac version because they are headed “”Custom Install in “Macintosh HD” ” These do give the option to choose a destination.

I’m on Windows. The manual doesn’t mention this re Windows and the Windows installer does not show this option.

So I repeat my request for advice.

Hi there,

I have added a screen print for clarification.

As you have already installed the sample files I assumed you wanted to move them in order to reclaim the space on your system drive.

If I am mistaken I do apologize.
