Sage 100 Premium Installed to Default Folder By Mistake - Best Way To Move?

  • 1.  Sage 100 Premium Installed to Default Folder By Mistake - Best Way To Move?

    Posted 02-21-2025 09:22

    I'm working on a Sage 100 Premium to Premium upgrade. I missed changing the default location for the upgraded version and Sage happily installed to the C: and went through the initial SQL connection.  We don't want to install the a local server C: and instead want it on their network E:

    What's the best way for me to correct this? 

    Is it just add/remove Sage and deal with it possibly also damaging their production Sage 100? 

    What about the SQL accounts that it created? I hadn't migrated any data but did the initial connection to SQL

    What I did was add/remove the Sage 100 2024 main program. I hadn't setup and services yet. 

    Then I re-installed to the correct location (!) and entered in the SA credentials. Sage did mention that there was already something setup on the SQL server and it offered to merge some data which I accepted. This seemed to fix my mistake. If any other problems creep up during the initial staging of Sage I'll update this post.
