NOOB question regarding save location

Hello gents!

Gonna preface this with - like the title says - probably a noob question but here goes:

TL;DR: Can I change where on my laptop my PC saves the game?

I use my laptop for school etc., no home PC so only this PC. Funnily enough, I don't want anyone to see something they shouldn't when they help me on the PC :D
Therefor my question; instead of having all these folders the games make automatically, like "Renpy", or "Sexy-game-title-I-wonder-what-is-in-this-folder", can I somehow tell whatever games, that I want all saves etc., so go to a specific folder which I then can place somewhere no-one normally looks? Better that, than always being nervous :D

Hope I explained it well enough - English is not my first language.

There is a backup save folder that gets made with each renpy game that is found in the PC/appdata/roaming/renpy/different game save folders here. So you can delete the game folder if you want just remember if those backups every get corrupted or something then you'll have to start all over again. You can find it by hitting the start key + R on the keyboard and then tying in appdata and hitting ok.
