The song that impacted you the most -THE THREAD 🔉
UPDATE:The steps above will relocate the Deezer binary, but does not change the song download directory:C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\deezer-desktop\…You can repeat the process for this directory as well to change the download directory. tl;dr:Move this directory to wherever you want to put downloaded songs (if you copy it, delete the original):C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\deezer-desktop Execute one of the following commands depending on which shell you use: cmd: mklink /D “C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\deezer-desktop” “<NEW_LOCATION>” PowerShell/pwsh: New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path ~\AppData\Roaming\deezer-desktop -Target “<NEW_LOCATION>”
RANT:Well it’s been a whole year, after being turned off of Deezer by the stunning lack of basic features I decided to go back to Spotify, now I’ve decided to go back to Deezer because I’ll use whoever is more competitive.I originally asked this question to put some pressure on the Deezer developers to implement a basic feature that IMO should be illegal not to have; basic control over where things are located on your computer that you bought with your money, built with your time & skills, and maintain without any assistance from the companies that lazily install software wherever they please like they own the place.The accepted solution is only possible on very recent versions of Windows.

All of the default windows directories are located on my 3TB hard drive, yet Deezer insists on saving everything on my C: drive. This causes my entire computer to be unusably slow because SSDs slow down the more you have on them. Why? I shouldn’t have to buy a new SSD every 6 months because the desktop app forces you to download everything to your C drive, and I shouldn’t have to pay more for my internet each month because everything is being streamed over it, ON TOP of my deezer subscription! If deezer is encrypting music as required by licensing agreements, then there should be no problem allowing users to move the directory. If deezer is hiding the downloads directory so they don’t have to encrypt their music, then they have a major security flaw and should not have gotten any licensing agreements in the first place. Spotify allows users to change the default download di
