scottvf: I had to restore my c drive (windows 10) with true image and after I lost my saves. I had 6 saves and then had only 2, because the saves were on the C: drive. I Install my games on my d: and J: drives. I want the game to save games on the same drive I installed it on.
waltc: Solution is to back up c:\Elex gamesave folder\ regularly or simply copy your c:\Elex gamesave folder\ to your game installation directory every time you quit the game.
Much bigger issue for you, though, is why your C:\ partition crashed...! You obviously expect it to happen again--so that's far more important. When c:\ goes down and you have to reinstall Windows fresh, all of your installed programs must be installed *again* to work properly, even if you installed them to other drives. Older games may run fine out of the install folder even if the registry contains no install information on them--but many newer games will not and will require re-installation. C:\ is the hub of your Windows system--you don't want to run it on an older, less-reliable drive or try and run it as a part of a RAID 0 setup, etc.
I never said my c drive crashed! and I never have to reinstall windows. I image my drive with true image and every now and then I experiment with new programs that after I will reimage the drive back to when I started experimenting.
If you don't know what True image is, it is a program that will create a file that is an image of your c drive (or any other drive you want) and if you want to go back to a previous state of your windows you just restore the file. It's cloning your drive to a file. I have about 14 images of my c drive. I also use a 1tb ssd m2 chip for my drive.

GR00T: Not sure if there's a way to change it in the game options. Since it's saved in the User folder, you could try moving the entire User folder onto a different drive (you'd have to do some fiddling with the registry, I think). You may be able to find instructions on how to do that via Google search. I don't recall all the details.
Another option may be to periodically copy the save games to a backup folder so you at least have them if something else happens.
Problem is I will sometimes forget to backup the saves before I reimage my drive. This is why having the saves on my J: drive (where the game is installed to) would be best.
