Perhaps you want to free up space on your primary drive or simply prefer to have your software installed on a separate partition. Whatever the reason, this article will guide you through the process of downloading and installing Nvidia Canvas on a different drive on your computer. Let’s get started!
Step 1: Check System Requirements
Before proceeding with the installation, ensure that your system meets the minimum requirements for Nvidia Canvas. You can find these requirements on the Nvidia website or in the software’s documentation. Make sure you have the necessary hardware, such as a compatible GPU, and the required operating system version.
Step 2: Download Nvidia Canvas
Once you have confirmed that your system meets the requirements, visit the Nvidia website and navigate to the download section. Look for the Nvidia Canvas software and click on the “Download” button. Choose the appropriate version for your operating system and click “Download.”
Step 3: Choose the Download Location
When the download starts, you will be prompted to select a download location. Instead of using the default location, click on the “Change” or “Select Folder” button and choose the drive where you want to install Nvidia Canvas. This could be a separate partition, an external drive, or even a network location.
Step 4: Extract the Downloaded File
After the download is complete, navigate to the download location and locate the downloaded file. Right-click on the file and select “Extract All” or “Extract Here” to extract the contents of the downloaded file. This will create a new folder containing the installation files.

Step 7: Complete the Installation
Once you have selected the installation drive, follow the remaining instructions to complete the installation. This may include accepting the license agreement, choosing additional components to install, and configuring any settings.
Step 8: Verify the Installation
After the installation is complete, navigate to the drive where you installed Nvidia Canvas. Look for the software’s executable file or the program’s icon. Double-click on it to verify that the software is installed correctly and functioning as expected.
