How to Move Files (not Apps) from C to D?

I’m asking this common question because of the many different explanations on how to move data files (not apps) from C to D. Some instruct use Windows Explorer, right click Folder > Properties > Move Location; others suggest drag and drop, or copy and paste from C to D. Some say to use command scripts or registry changes, or Partitions. What is the safest way?

• Do I also need to make any changes to my Shell Folders and/or User Shell Folders too?
  
• Finally, for the Folder Change Location method, some instruct to move location to D:\Documents, for example. Why wouldn’t the path be D:\users\NAME\Documents?
  

Many Thanks! Michael

 

Outlook send/receive issue after moving pst files to Drive D

I need some advice, as this issue is driving me pretty crazy and the solutions I've found online so far don't seem to work or have negative downstream consequences.
Win 10 (oem), v.1903
Office 2019 Home and Business (oem)
Internal Drive C: program files (but the oem install has the Documents folder on Drive C too for some reason)
Internal Drive D: data files
Background

1. After activating Outlook 2019, Windows automatically placed each pst file in C:\\Users\Username\Documents\Outlook Files\L: [email protected] Instead, I would like to store each Outlook pst file (have multiple email addresses/pst files) in a Documents folder (or some other folder) on Drive D.
2. To move the original Documents folder from drive C to Drive D I closed Outlook, right-clicked the original Documents folder and used the Properties/Location tab to move it to a new Documents folder I had previously created on drive D. That step seemed to work correctly, and each pst file was now in the new Documents folder on Drive D.
3. After the folder move, I launched Outlook and used the resulting "Outlook can't find" popup to specify a new file path for each pst file. However, while I can see each new file path in Outlook's Account Settings, it throws send and receive error messages (e.g.: "Sending reported error (0x8004010F): Outlook data file cannot be accessed") and won't send or receive for each account. This continues to happen after closing and reopening Outlook.
4. I moved the Documents folder back to where it was on drive C. I tried this several times, using the Outlook error popup to try to remap each email account to the new Documents path on Drive D.

Bottom line is that this Outlook send/receive issue is also preventing me from moving my Documents folder to the D drive where I want it, because when I move it, it messes up Outlook.
Question

• After I move each pst file and specify the new file paths in the Outlook popup, how do I get Outlook to send/receive for those email accounts?

Thank you in advance.

 

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

If your documents were moved to the D drive without a 'My Documents' folder then the files would as D:/ each file. However, if they accessed in D:/ [you] / Documents, then this is not the case and the path is the same as it was on the C drive except for
the change in the drive.

File storage is a matter of personal choice but if there is more than one account then the user name should be included in the path. If there is no other user then of course the path can be D:/ Documents.

Create a new folder D:/ Documents.

Right click on the current documents folder at D:/ [you]/ Documents, select properties, and then the 'Location' tab.

Click on 'Move' and navigate to the newly created D:/ Documents folder. When asked if files are to be combined - say yes. Click on Apply / OK.

I am not sure how you moved Documents in the first place so a wise move would be to back up before doing anything or perhaps restoring the default and starting again.
