How to move apps from SSD to HDD in WINDOWS 10?

The laptop is new, it has two drives - a 132 GB SSD and a 1 TB HDD.
The system is on the SSD and it is planned to install the Adobe package - that's it.
The HDD is empty now, there are only Admin and WindowsApps, but I also want to transfer services like Skype, Slack, etc. here.
Adobe automatically got on the SSD - that's how it should be. But I want to keep secondary user services on the hard drive so that the already small SSD does not clog up (132 GB and 32 are already occupied by the system initially)
. in Settings - System - Storage, I specified the HDD for all applications, but the Skype and screen tool installation file is still added to the SSD. and you can’t move using the method that they talk about here -windowstips.ru/notes/15781
Please tell me how to set the folder / location of applications on windows 10?

It is possible to transfer, but not easy, you will need to look personally for each application.
Easier to do with symlinks
Install in C, manually transfer the folder to D, then create a symlink in the C folder pointing to the desired location.

Settings - System - Storage
To be honest, I haven’t really studied Windows 10 yet, so I don’t know exactly what this means, but it seems to me that this action will transfer all documents, user profiles and temporary application files to the HDD.
If so, then it is not clear why you did it.
132 GB SSD
Can you provide a link to such a miracle? Usually the size is 120, 240, etc.
In general, I would recommend buying an SSD for 240 than to dodge like that.
