Relocate Windows 7 profile directory!

This is a little piece of software that allows to you to relocate the location of the Windows User Profile directory.

The description on their site says:

Profile Relocator is a step-based application that allows the re-locating of the Windows Users profile directory. Once re-located, any created profiles will appear in the new location in their entirety. The advantage to doing this allows profiles to be stored in a location that doesn’t reside on the system drive, ensuring that profile data isn’t compromised as a result of re-installation or system failure.

Also, they’ve also warned to not relocate already existing profiles meaning that do this right after you install/reinstall your OS.

According to their site:

Please note that this application should ideally be used on new installations of Windows; PR should be used, and then the final profile should be created. See the included documentation for step-by-step information. PR will not move existing profiles as this can be dangerous.
