Chia wallet problem for help.

[abcc3]

Hello, developer. I'm running Chia desktop wallet. My system is win10.

The space of C disk where my current computer system is located is limited.

How can I transfer Chia's blockchain data to another hard disk.

If you can, please give a tutorial, thank you.

Any help is welcome.

Let me ask another question. Do you add the function of automatically deleting useless blockchains in the wallet installation file of the new version? If not, please join.

new updated versions of Chia will reuse the databases in use
To move the database, there are a couple of different ways you can try:
first is through the config.yaml file located in your users folder ~\.chia\mainnet\config\config.yaml
in this file, under the full_node: section, you will find this:

  database_path: db/blockchain_v1_CHALLENGE.sqlite

changing that to something like T:\chia\blockchain_v1_CHALLENGE.sqlite would direct it to that folder instead

another option is to make use of the env var CHIA_ROOT and set that to point to T:\chia for instance - that would make chia use that as its working folder, and you could move the contents of ~\.chia\mainnet\ to T:\chia\
