Is it possible to move the folder where the cookies are stored to another
drive?
If so, how can I do it?
Thanks

It has to be on the system drive.

You can easily backup your cookies to any drive you like.
 
Yes you can SantistaS. First, copy your Cookies folder to your desired
folder on your PC. This can be any drive-folder on your PC that the
permissions are set to your favour. Open up your registry and alter the
following values at your own peril.

Within
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders
you'll find a Registry Sting, REG_SZ, called;

Cookies
Double click it and change it to your other location. Back it up first.

Within
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders
You'll find the same and do the same. Only this is a Registry Expandable
String Value (REG_EXPAND_SZ), like above you really don't need to consider
that.

You either logoff then back on, or reboot, and you changes shall be in
effect.
