Hi All,

The Monero deamon seems to download the blockchain to C:\ProgramData by default. Iv has a look at the startup switches but cant see any way to change this. Is there a way? my C:\ is a bit full.

Thanks in advance..

Broman..

Add --data-dir "path/to/blockchain" to the launch command. Here is an example for Windows: monerod.exe --data-dir "D:\My Documents\bitmonero"
