user1498: I want to move (not backup, move) the file to a different location. That way bitcoin wallet software open that file up.

user5021: If you have already downloaded the data then you will have to move the data to the new folder. If you want to store them in D:\BitcoinData then click on "Properties" of Bitcoin.exe shortcut and add -datadir=d:\BitCoinData at the end as an example:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -datadir=d:\BitCoinData
