As dalchina mentioned, Microsoft does not support or recommend using the registry setting to move the Program files folder. It is provided for exceptional situations and is not suitable for general use. Many such options are provided. There are known issues with moving the program files folder.

I would consider moving the program files folder (using any method) as very risky. You may get into a situation where the only solution is to reinstall the OS. It is best to accommodate the folder in it's normal location.
