OK thanks folks for your help (printer drivers) and Andrew.

I am starting to have some success but am not quite there yet. smile

Here's what I'd like to accomplish. Somehow (I don't remember how) I managed to install BIAB 2021 onto my c:
drive in Jan 2021. I'd just like to do the same thing with this 2024 UltraPak upgrade.

I installed it in c:\Program Files\bb and each time I open BIAB I get a message in the bottom right corner saying: "It really would be nice if you moved your files to c:\bb Have a nice day!"
Well I am quite surprised that BIAB subtly forces you to install the program in their preferred location.
How difficult is it for the BIAB programmers to see where I have the program and adjust accordingly?

Somehow I have been able to use the program this way up until now, so it certainly has adjusted.

The core program files are in the c:\Program Files\bb folder.
So as not to take up any more precious space on my c: drive I installed my RealTracks and RealDrums onto:
d:\Music\BIAB

So I started to have some success yesterday when I managed to install BIAB onto a USB stick.
I went for the full install, as recommended by Musocity.
He said after doing a full install I could copy over only what I wanted onto my c: drive.

Mario suggested:

"I would install only the main BiaB program and if you use them the Plogue sforzando and Synthmaster Player onto your hard drive and put everything else on an external HD. "

So now the big question is how do I put everything together? Yes I am even willing to install onto c:\bb this time. smile

I basically would like to have the minimum files required to run BIAB on my c:\ drive and the RealTrack stuff situated on my
d:\Music\BIAB

Just for reference, my BIAB 2021 is still alive and runs perfectly fine. I currently have a second icon on my desktop that only comes alive when I have my BIAB 2024 USB installation drive active.

If I managed to get my BIAB 2021 to work this way and all my previous BIAB versions I'm sure BIAB 2024 can do the same.

One strange thing. When I looked into my Windows 'installed apps' I saw my BIAB 2024 that I installed yesterday, showing 27.7G of space used.
But I couldn't see my BIAB 2021 installation ! What happened to it? It still runs.
And did BIAB 2024 install into the same folder as BIAB 2021?
