which drive

A redditor has noticed a new feature in the Windows 10 Store app.

The store will now offer you the option to choose which drive you want to install large apps and games on, rather than defaulting to your Windows drive. The OS already allows users to selection the default location for apps and to move them to other drives, but this feature lets users install large media apps on slower, larger drives and other apps on a faster internal SSD for example.

The feature is present in both Build 14361 and 14366.
