      The Feathercoin blockchain will grow overtime and if you want to be one step ahead of an full C:\ disk you may want to replace the default blockchain location to another disk, lets say D:\

      Here is what you need to do:
      On Windows Vista or later, the whole %appdata%\Feathercoin directory can be replaced with a symbolic directory link:
      (0) Make sure the feathercoin client is not running.
      (1) Move the %appdata%\Feathercoin directory to its target location (e.g. D:\Feathercoin)
      (2) Run the command prompt as root and issue the command mklink /d “c:\users\\appdata\roaming\Feathercoin” “D:\Feathercoin”

      Now start the client.
