Move Personal Folder to another partition

[Edwin Wade]

Is it possible to move the Personal Folder from the C: partition to another
partition. I'm running short of space on C: and this is one solution to the
problem. I basically want Outlook to have all it's folders on another
partition, is it possible?

Of course. With Outlook closed, just move the files. Open Outlook, and it
will complain it can't find the data. Navigate to where you put them...

Yes you can, but that probably wont eleviate the disk space problem, unless
your data files are gigantic.
You've taken other space saving steps?
eg Moved My Documents to another partition (rt click My
Documents>Properties>Move)
Cleared your temp files, adjusted & cleared IE settings in Internet Options?

You can even specify that the entire Windows user profile get put on the
other partition but altering the user properties. That should move all of
the temporary files IE creates, in addition to other user-specific files.
