I'm running Vista x64 home premium edition.
I'd like to keep my program files and user files on separate partitions.
I'd prefer to setup a junction (symbolic link) to the separate partitions so
that the system automatically does its thing in the new partitions as if they
were in the original partition.
The problem is getting permission to move the files to the new partition and
delete the old files, etc.
I've tried to use the security tab in the advanced window to change the
owner and permissions but it works on some files and folders but not others.
After much effort I got it to work for all my user files but screwed up the
program files so I had to do a new install.
I've considered running cacl to raise my WIC level to "Trusted Installer"
but would rather try a simpler method if possible.
Are there any other options?
