Years ago before a bad crash/reinstall of Win and the TW game, I had many courses installed on my second hard drive, not the drive where the game is installed. It worked perfect. Now I'd like to do that again but cannot remember how to do it. Installing with the Caddie gives no choice of any other place to install, it just defaults to the game's inner folders Courses and Libraries. Maybe I wasn't using the Caddie in the old days?

When you open the caddie go to the top and select options, then select properties. Then you can browse and choose where to install the courses/libraries.

Yes as Jim said in previous post:
Options....Properties
And you will see a box: Default installation directory
At right side of courses and libraries box you will see 2 small dots, when you click on the 2 small dots then you can browse for the installation path.

Thanks both Jim and Pat. It worked fine. I don't know whether I *had* to do these finer details, but I made a folder E:\TW Courses and Libs\ then inside it I made Courses and separate Libraries folders.

So then I downloaded and installed a course new to me. I was nervous a little that the game would now fail to see previously installed (and uncloaked) Courses, but it turns out fine, plays fines too, no worries.

I assume that just like Windows itself I cannot simply move existing C courses over to my E, the link would break. Let me know if this would safely work.

Hiya Tranz, good news you got it working.
Moving The courses from C to E drive will not work, the link will break.

In case this whole thread got too wordy, Too Long Didn't Read, TLDR, here's a visual clue about the Caddie's Options/Properties dialog. The cursor shows where you can Browse to a new location. For me, it helped to have already made some new folders.
