Can I delete/change my C:/ Drive?

After removing one of my hard drives, I looked in My Computer to notice that the C:/ drive, the one I removed is still there. Even worse, is that some programs that I try to use automatically use this drive to install. However, my D:/ drive is the one I want it to install to. Is there a way to fix/change this?

If you've phyiscaly removed the drive from the computer, it shouldn't be there. You will need to re-install the programs to run from another drive.
Reply:Your C:/ drive is probably still showing up because even though you uninstalled it, it's drivers are probably still there. If you want to install something to a different disc, you just need to start the installation process, and when it prompts you to choose an installation directory, you need to manually go through my computer and click on the D:/ drive, where you could create a folder to install a program into. Best of luck!
Reply:i beleive that is something that's decided when you first start the computer, I don't think that's changeable.





if the c drive is the one that you assigned your hard drive to, you are most likely stuck with that.
