SourceTree 2 - How to change install directory on Windows

By default, SourceTree 2.x installs silently and chooses to sit in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\SourceTree directory.

Forefully moving it does not break it, but updater does not work correctly - still, seeking version in old location, and various tools it is trying to launch from original location.

I don't want it to sit in C:\*, but in E:\, I don't want its settings to sit somewhere deep in C:\*, I want it to be compact and understandable, but it seems that new version [2.x] does not allow us to change anything.

What needs to be done to:

  • install it in specific directory;
  • move from one location to another without breaking its access to its tools and updater;
  • change the location of options\settings?
