Changing Desktop Location Risk?
Go to solution
Solved by Daniel644,
it's fine, get EVERYTHING off the boot drive that doesn't need to be there, makes clean windows installs easier as you just have to redirect your user folders to the locations on the D drive instead of backing them up to another drive before wiping the main drive, then copying them back after ward. been doing it for years. moving the Desktop is no different or more or less "risky" then moving Documents or anything else. ANY computer I have with 2 or more drives is configured this way and has been for years. You just can't use like Bitlocker Encryption to protect your files and you may have to do a "take ownership" of all the files, but thats way faster then copying everything twice.
