Hi
I have decided that it is time to move on from XP. I have found it very reliable over a number of years but an increasing number of companies are no longer including support for products running on XP.
Mainly for economic reasons I have only moved up to Windows 7 but I have received a number of nasty shocks mainly due to the fact that the replacement computer is 64 bit and none of my old familiar programs will run. (I intend to make a new post on that score later). This problem is one within Win 7 itself. For various reasons I prefer to keep my programs on a different partition from the operating system but when I try to move a program folder from C: to another partition The computer tells me that the operation is not allowed as the program is in use.
How can I get round this difficulty?
regards
phil
