FSX installed in 'Program Files' vs. C:\

I've recently received a new machine with FSX Gold pre-installed. Unfortunately, it was installed in 'Program Files' instead of C:\ drive.
I do alot of WideFS on different PC's, so i'm thinking it is probably going to be necessary to make the move. The question is - should I attempt to drag the whole thing over; or perform an un-install - re-install?

Many thanks.

You can't just drag it over per say..


I say its easier to just uninstall and reinstall again...


The reason it was installed into program files is to avoid all of Vistas permissions...

Unless widefi needs it installed into C/ default, then I would leave it there where it is...
 
you can just cut and paste all the files but youw ill need to make the necessary changes to the resistry.
