Reddit Forum: Is it possible to move Brave's profile to another location on the same computer?

But I'm having trouble doing it for this portable version of Chromium
Here's the .bat file I used for Brave
 
@echo off
 
ECHO CHANGING BRAVE PROFILE LOCATION TO N:\BRAVE PORTABLE\BraveSoftware
 
mklink /j "C:\Users\mr\AppData\Local\BraveSoftware" "N:\BRAVE PORTABLE\BraveSoftware"
 
PAUSE

This is in my brave shortcut target field, with the added commnad
 
“N:\BRAVE PORTABLE\brave.exe” --user-data-dir=“N:\BRAVE PORTABLE\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\User Data”
 
Here's my Chromium directory profile location N:\CHROMIUM\Chromium\User Data
