"Is there a way to change or move internet browsers such as Chrome, Edge, or Firefox to a new hard drive partition? Can I transfer the installed internet browser from its default install location to a new drive? I'm using Windows 10. Please help!"
How do I change the install location of Chrome/Edge/Firefox
Have you ever asked yourself how to change the install directory of a browser like Chrome, Edge, etc., in Windows 11, 10, 8, or 7?

And yes, we were used to being told so. But is it true?
If I tell you that you can directly move your browsers, installed programs, and apps to another new partition or hard drive, will you give it a try? Here, EaseUS will show you how to effectively change Chrome/IE Edge/Firefox, etc browsers to another hard drive with a few simple clicks.
Feel free to share this page with your friends and families if they are also in need.
