If a program advertises itself as "portable" it can usually be moved, 
though in some cases user has to select "portable" at initial install to 
get that feature.

Otherwise there are windows utilities that claim to be able to move 
settings/userdata but I would consider this "hit or miss".  That's for 
windows desktop apps.  No idea about UWP apps or windows on ARM 
hardware.
