If you have MultiCharts version prior to 8.7, [[How to Move MultiCharts Database, Studies and Logs from C Drive (Versions Prior to 8.7)|here]] you can read how to move MultiCharts Database, Studies and Logs from C Drive.
==Database Files==
Before starting, it is recommended to backup the database (see [[How to Backup User Data]]).
==Log Files==
There is no need to backup your logs Logs unless the file contains information regarding an issue (see [[MultiCharts Logs]]).
To change the Logs folder location:
# Click Directories tab, then click [[File:dir2.png]] and change Order & Position Tracker Data path to the new one.
<div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">'''Note''': For example, new location of the "Order & Position Tracker Data" folder is "E:\new_location\OPT_Data".</div>
==Cache==
The '''first step''' is '''to copy the files''' themselves.
The location of Cache files can be found in MultiCharts. In the Main Menu click File, select Preferences, click Directories tab, copy Cache files location path. Then:
# Click '''Windows Start''' button.
# For Windows Vista/Windows 7/Windows 8 paste Cache path into the Search field.
# Press '''Enter'''.
# In the popped up window make a copy of the '''Cache folder''' with all its contents.
# Paste the copy of the '''Cache folder''' or its files to new location.<br>
The '''second step''' is to change the Cache path in MultiCharts:
# Run MultiCharts.
# In the Main Menu go to File.
# Select Preferences.
# Click Directories tab, then click [[File:dir2.png]] and change Cache path to the new one.
<div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">'''Note''': For example, new location of the "Cache" folder is "E:\new_location\MC_Cache".</div>
