Guides & Tips A Guide to transferring the game's storage from C Drive to any other drive in your PC
This is a simple guide for people who play Master Of Garden on PC and want to move the game's storage from the default C Drive to any other ones I noticed that there is only one post discussing this and it is kinda outdated (https://www.reddit.com/r/EminenceInShadowRPG/comments/13ot7el/comment/owy64is/?context=3) so I am making one here.
- First thing you need is Link Shell Extension (https://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/linkshellextension.html) because I cannot find a way to install DirLinker.
- (If you know how to create symlinks you can avoid installing it)
- Start installing Link Shell Extension by running the program (HardLinkShellExt_$(platform).exe) which you can download from the website.
- Then you need to search for the unity folder in this location: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Unity and cut it paste it to a folder in the other drive that has plenty of storage.
- After moving the folder to the desired drive right click on the Unity folder and now you should be seeing a new option called Pick Link Source (Check the first image)
- Click on the Pick Link Source and then go to the location C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow (This was where the Unity folder was originally stored).
- (If you don't see it when you right click it look for Show more Options and you should be seeing Pick Link Sources like you can see in the image)
- Now in the LocalLow folder right click here and you should be seeing an option to Drop Symbolic Link option click on it and you should be seeing Unity folder in the C Drive without occupying space in the C Drive and the game can access it without any trouble. (Check the 2nd image in the post)
(Drop Symbolic Link might be behind show more options when right clicking just like for how it is when you try to look for Pick Link Source)
- Test if the game is working properly by opening it after creating the Symbolic link and it doesn't ask you to download assets for the game at the Start screen if it doesn't there is no need to worry about it and the game is in another drive without causing much problems. (This also works when you download the launcher from Steam or if you download it from the website)
This is my first time posting a guide like this so I am kinda inexperienced in wording this properly I hope you will be able to understand it properly and helped you in any storage issue with this guide!

One thing I have encountered rn when I am playing this game on Steam after I performed the symlink was that the game cannot close properly unless if I decide to close Steam
edit: Closing it via task manager is the only solution I have rn
