Users cannot move this folder the way they can move an app installation because apps are hardwired to look for it in its default location. It can get pretty big and end up taking substantial space on the C drive (or whichever drive is your Windows drive). Apps install to the C drive but they store user-specific data to the AppData folder e.g., Chrome’s profiles are stored in the AppData folder. These folders contain other folders created by apps. We’ve talked in length about the AppData folder on Windows 10, and the three sub-folders that it contains Local, LocalLow, and Roaming. The folder is located at the root of every user’s user folder. It is hidden by default but can be accessed directly if a user chooses to show hidden files and folders on their system. The AppData folder is a folder that is created by Windows 10.
