Use mklink

This command allows me to store my RE at this location d:\mklink\Rackextensions

mklink /J "C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\Propellerhead Software\RackExtensions" "D:\Mklink\RackExtensions"

Of course, you location can be anywhere you want.

Step 1, MOVE the RE to new location. (don't copy)
Step 2, remove the Rackextensions folder from the C drive
Step 3, run the above command, replace YOURNAME with your windows login name.
Step 4, start Reason and you should be all set to go :)
