I am uncertain whether you can choose 'where' the storage folder is located
and if you find it and try to move it you might mess things up. However it is
simple to find the 'storage folders by right click on start then select
explore then open 'program files in C:/ then scroll down to windows live. You
should find the 'storage folders' in the logs folder (or thereabouts). The
best thing is to drag and drop one in first so you know what to expect if you
find your way there. Let me know if it works.
