How to move userdata folder? - Pico1965 - 2013-10-26

Can anyone describe how to move userdata folder in another position?

1) I've installed XBMC 13 (new installation... 0 data)
2) in %appdata%\XBMC\userdata I've created advancedsetting.xml

Code:
<advancedsettings>

    <pathsubstitution>

        <substitute>

            <from>special://masterprofile/</from>

            <to>d:\newdestination\XBMC\</to>

        </substitute>

    </pathsubstitution>

</advancedsettings>

3) run XBMC
4) exit XBMC
in d:\newdestination\XBMC now XBMC have created same empty folders
5) run XBMC
6) change language
7) exit XBMC
8) start XBMC
is already in english!

Thanks[/code]
