Change Your iTunes Backup Location Using Directory Junctions

Using an Elevated Command Prompt:
C:\Users\Sean>mklink /J "C:\Users\Sean\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync
\Backup" "D:\Backups\iTunes\Backup"

Result:
Junction created for C:\Users\Sean\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Bac
kup <<===>> D:\Backups\iTunes\Backup

If you see the error "The syntax of the command is incorrect." you probably copied the command from a web page and edited it. The 'fancy' quotes need to be replaced with the standard ones on our keyboard.
