  1. 2 Downloads folders?


    Hello! I have recently moved my downloads folder from "C:\Users\user\Downloads" to "D:\DownloadsStorage". When I download something, it still goes to the normal downloads folder and, and sometimes goes to the right one D:\DownloadsStorage. It's random and unpredictable.

    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    :)

    Unable to delete a folder - Invalid folder name


    Suggestion:
    1. Run chkdsk x: /r to make sure that there's no HD corruption.
      x: is the drive containing the folder you want to delete.
    2. Try to delete the folder again. If still does not work, go to step 3.
    3. Download: Download - Linux Mint and create a bootable USB using: Rufus - Create bootable USB
    4. Boot up with Linux Mint and try to delete the folder again.
      NOTE: Unlike WinPE. Linux does not have any Windows permission imposed to it so it is easier to delete.
