Is it at all possible to move the default connector "cache" folders for software updates to a different drive?

I have tried looking for config files or registry entries relating to this but found none. I would like the connector "cache" folders to reside on the D:.

    Hi Ernest_za,

    It is possible to move some sub-folders away from the data folder using symbolic link (Directory Junction). Use command mklink to create it at Windows, i.e. 

    mklink /J "c:\ProgramData\WithSecure\NS\ElementsConnector\data\swup\updates" "d:\FS-data\updates"

    Please make sure that target directory has the same NTFS permissions as original one...
