Change Windows 7 Library Location?

I currently have five libraries in Windows 7, and my hard drive has two partitions. I would like to move all my libraries to the new partition, including all the files contained within them. How can I change the defaults to always look in the other partition for the libraries?Change Windows 7 Library Location?
right i tried this

you have to put a new folder there first.[in the other partition]

then change the libraries location to those empty folders (as explained by the first 2)

then move all the files...

a few things will have to stay, i.e the folder desktop.



you can really mess up your computer doing this, as it can get confused, so carefulChange Windows 7 Library Location?
Create your new folder.



Right click on the library you want to change location of and select properties



Modify the properties to include the new folder.
1. Open Windows Explorer.

2. Open the Library you want to change the default save location.

3. Select locations next to Includes at the top of the Library window.

4. Right-click the location you want to set as the default save location and select Set as default save location. Click OK to save the changes.
