Windows 10: Accidentally changed screenshot save location as D drive

My ssd is slowly filling up so as a way to free up a little bit of space I thought I'd move the screenshot folder to my D drive(which is a hard drive). But when doing this, instead of selecting a folder I selected the drive itself. So now all the screenshots are making a mess of my drive and I don't no how to make the screenshots save to a folder.

My Documents file location set to a second drive. Unable to change file location back.

After installing a second drive I wanted to change the file location of 'Documents'. To do this I went the file properties to change its location from a file on drive C to a file on drive D. However I accidentally select drive D itself instead of the file
within it. Now I cannot change the location of 'Documents', nor can I restore its default location. When I attempt to do so I receive this message: "Failed to build the list of regular subdirectories under "D:\System Volume Information". Access is denied."

Looking for any help available.

 

Cannot access D drive since upgrading to Windows 10.

Hello Judy,



Thank you for replying quickly with the status of the issue.



Please reply to few more questions:

• 
  Is the D: drive located on the same hard disk or on different hard disk?
  
• 
  Did you have any important data saved on the
  D: drive?
  

If the D: is saved on another hard disk and you are unable to access it, I suggest you to format the drive completely and check if the issue is resolved.



To format the hard disk, follow the steps below:

• 
  Press Windows logo + X keys on the keyboard and select
  Disk management option.
  
• 
  Right click on the D: drive and select
  Format option.
  
• 
  Wait for the formatting to complete and check if the changes are effective.

Accidentally saved my documents folder to the Hard drive (D without a location

This is a common enough occurrence, here is how to put your My Documents back into a folder:

• Open Windows File Explorer, create a folder called My Documents on your D Drive
• Put whatever files and folder should be in your My Documents folder into that folder
• Click on Quick Access on the left hand side of File Explorer
• On the right hand side right click the My Documents Library Folder and select Properties
• Select the Location Tab and Type D:\My Documents as the location
• When asked if you want to Merge Contents - select No

I hope this Helps!
