Install E-Mail and Server Security to a different partition

thommck

I have a file server that has a really small C:\ drive. I need to re-install F-Secure E-Mail and Server Security v9.20 to the much larger \ partion but their doesn't seem to be a way to do this.

 

Does anyone know how to specify a different installation directory, either through Policy Manager or a standalone install?

I solved this myself!

 

You can specify an installatin directory but only if you wipe EVERY trace of any old f-secure installs from your system.

I had previously used Policy Manager 10.10 to do the uninstall remotely but that left a few traces behind, namely the registry keys specified in this KB article 

• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Data Fellows
• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\F-Secure

I also deleted c:\Program Files\f-secure (my server had about 5mb of files left in there).

 

I then did a manual install using the .exe setup from the F-Secure download page. This now gave me the option to choose the drive as the installation directory
