You're going to have to uninstall the programs and reinstall
them on D. Keep in mind that not all programs will give you the
option of installing them on a partition other than C.

It probably wouldn't hurt if you created that the D:\Program
Files folder in advance but I've found that the first program
that let's you select the D drive as the installation location
usually creates the folder for you.

Good luck
