So I have an alienware 15 laptop with hard drive and an ssd. the ssd is for startup/OS and the hard drive is for data. I noticed I had some programs installed on my ssd so I cut them and pasted them into my hard drive. after I did this all the programs I moved stopped working. but when I tried to uninstall them from my pc I was given an error saying it cannot be uninstalled because the file location has been moved or is unknown. I recycled these files and then ran cleaner. did this remove the unwanted files from my pc? have I caused any permanent damage to any components of my pc. thanks for your answers in advance :)
No permanent damage has been done. The only real cure for your problem is either to reinstall the programs into their correct location or do a factory reset.
