Moving IL2 to a new drive

[scissorss]

Moved as in copy/paste? Because in order for that to work I'd imagine you would have to do some registry editing.

I right clicked on the IL2 folder, and tapped "move to".

I can copy and paste the folder wherever I like and every copy works, but I am using the-patch-that-must-not-be-named since my disc gave up.

Well, that's not really an advertise-able solution

You can copy your entire IL2 directory anywhere you like. No registry editing required. You might have to make a new il2fb.exe shortcut that points to your new location. No modding/hacking required.

A new il2fb.exe shortcut sounds like the simplest path. How do I go about making a new one?

I will move it to recycle bin

I confirm that. If the installaion is OK, you need to do no reg editing or anythig like that.

I'm downloading a new copy, now. It's only $10, and will only need to be patched, once the download is complete. Starting from square one wasn't what I planned on, but it looks like the cleanest way.

Thanks, everyone for your help and advice.

ps I may ask sometime how to add the HE-219 from SAS.
