I set hdd dirve as sorage now all of my files are saving on my desktop but I don't want that!!

[Jaok]

I followed the Linus' tutorial on how to set hdd as your storage but for some reason all the files started saving on my desktop and even if I try to change the file path I can only set the location of it on desktop (if you don't belive me you should take a look at the photo I attached to this post)

Go in your browser and change the download location. 

 

All browsers have some Options / Configuration menu, go there and change default setting.

Oh, that that fine, I just wanted to figure out what exactly you meant

So when you download something in Chrome or Firefox or whatever web browser you use, it saves to your desktop?

I can't because whenever I want to cahnge the download location I can only select my desktop for it.

Hopefully you get what I mean

What browser are you using?

That might help us understand why you couldn't change it.

chrome

Note: the same thing accours even if I got to options and try to set any other folder as deafult save folder

I would ignore that tutorial because it hasn't aged well. Windows 10 introduced better options for managing this: 

Can you screenshot your browser downloads file location window?

You need to go to your web browser settings rather than disk management to change the downloads location.

Thanks but there is another problem I have. When I install a program all of it's files appear on the desktop. For example if I download a game it's assets, sounds etc. will appear on my desktop and I don't know how to solve that.

Oh wow. Is it a possibility to start again from scratch? Seems like a lot of work to undo this.

I totally agree.
What  on Earth did you do to your settings.
I understand what you're trying to do, and it should have taken only a few seconds and a few clicks. I do it with all of my Windows setups.
I'm not sure what the photo is trying to show, but you don't need Windows Disk Management to do any of this.

At the beggining I moved my desktop from sdd to hdd disk. After that I did this with every other library (photos, documents, downloads...)

That's the only thing I did
