Hi

I'm trying to move my downloads directory folder from my SSD to HDD

so i go to C: -> Users -> UsersName -> Right Click the Downloads Folder -> and i Move it to my HDD

but i put it on D:/ only

so now on my D:/ i can't see the downloads folder, i can just see the file inside of it

it will make my HDD look messy

 

how can i fix this?

Right click on Documents (on the left hand panel) > Properties > Location. Move it to D:\Documents instead of D:\.

There is no documents on left hand panel (like the pic)

 

it only has

D:\

desktop

downloads

musics

pictures

videos

local disk c

local disk d

 

note : i move the first documents to D:\

and i already tried to move the D:\ back to original place, which is C:\Users\Hendra Setiawan\Documents

 

but windows said "failed to buld the list of reguler subdirectories under "D:\system volume information" access denied"

Click no when it asks if you want to move contents. Just tried it myself and it worked fine.

It depends where you downloads + documents are, you say their in C and D

 

you can't delete them if they are the active system folder, if they are no longer linked then you can delete them.

I cannot send a pic right now because i'm not on my PC

 

but all i can say is

yes it's in C and D

and i already delete the downloads on D, and it deleted 

and about the documents, i cannot delete it because i don't know where to delete it, but on the left pane on my windows

there is no D:\ and downloads anymore

 

there's only desktop

musics

pictures

videos

local disk c

local disk d

 

and when i right click a file and click send to -> to downloads

it goes to my C ones

so its fixed right ? (deleting the one in D)
