I have moved the program folder to my SSD, which significantly reduced my loading time but I also want to move my user folder (local.data) located at my document library to the SSD as well. How do I redirect the path to the SSD?

Nothing I can find in the registry, must be hard coded to current user..

It won’t help much. i’d install whole system on ssd and place gw2 there as well(or on separate ssd).
As for your question: use directory hard link “mklink /j”.

The game only reads the local.dat one time just to get the user info and settings moving your local.dat is not going to improve load time at all just leave it where the game puts it don’t try to fix what’s not broken.

ProgramDATA is integrated into windows. Its where programs store their settings and Cache (when not writing to %appdata$).

I would not suggest moving it, instead just move your GW2 folder to whatever drive you want the core of the game to run from.
