>>>>Hi,

>>>>I installed SQL Server 2008 Express on customer server. During the installation I didn't see the option to specify where to install it. So it got installed on C: driver. The customer IT says he wants me to move it to the E: driver. I am looking at the Control Panel -> Programs and Features and see many Microsoft SQL Server ??? items installed today. Do I need to uninstaller all of them? Here is the list of the items I see:
>>>>MS SQL Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)
>>>>MS SQL Server 2008 R2 Native Client
>>>>MS SQL Server 2008 R2 Policies
>>>>MS SQL Server 2008 R2 Setup (English)
>>>>MS SQL Server 2008 Setup support Files
>>>>MS SQL Server Browser
>>>>
>>>>Please let me know if you suggest I uninstall or just some of the above? TIA

The - fill-in-blank - IT customer is being - fill-in-blank. It does not need to be on E:; it would be quite ok to have it on C: but what can I do?!
Thanks.
