In order to move the data directory, use the same process as with PRTG 7, as outlined under How can I change the data directory of my PRTG 7 installation?.

In order to change the program directory, you would need to uninstall / reinstall, defining a new installation location. For reference, please see How can I move my PRTG installation to another computer?

Hello,

just to confirm, do you want to change PRTGs data folder or PRTGs program folder?

Best Regards.
