I didn't even know Windows could let you do this. Did you check if it'll let you delete & remake it or remap the shortcut? Either should fix the problem.

Do you recall the steps that brought you to this conundrum? Might bring some insight on how to fix it.

If you click on the D:\ drive > properties does it give you the Location tab and the option to remap it to the actual D:\ drive?
