    C: Disk and D: Disk


    I recently got a new computer running on Windows 10 which is awesome but there is something I wanna change and I don't know how.


    So, my problem is the download and save paths with the quick access folders. Downloads was set on default to save to the C: Drive, so I went into apps & features and changed it to D:. My issue is the folders in quick access, their save location is set to C: and I'm not sure how to change it, it can be annoying as if I download something, I have to go to This PC, find my user name within D: and save my downloads within the download folder instead of doing it the quick and more convenient way, using the folders in quick access downloads, documents, music, video, photos

    :)

    Local Disk D is faster than Local Disk C

    Thats a pretty cool story.

    looking at the size they also appear to be completely different disks.

    Problems with Disk saving files! I changed saving to Disk D but it still saves stuff in Disk C.

    I really need help right now. So I recently bought a pc. It has Disk C ( with 118 GB ) and Disk D (with 981 GB) the problem is... I want everything to be saved on Disk D by default and not on Disk C but that hasn't been working until now. I went to settings
    and changed the storage location but it's still saving on Disk C and not D, what happens is... The Disk C gets full and I can't change things to Disk D if I change anything ( example: a game ) there'll be 2 of the same things in Disk C and D and if I try to
    delete the one in Disk C I won't be able to open because it says it doesn't exist anymore. What can I do to change the downloads to Disk D only.

    C: Disk and D: Disk

    Problems with Disk saving files! I changed saving to Disk D but it still saves stuff in Disk C.

    I had done that already, the problem is that it's set to Disk D but it still saves in Disk C ... For example, whenever I want to download something ( ex: a game ) it'll go to the Download Folder in Disk D but afterwards it'll start downloading somwhere
    in Disk C instead of D. Even though everything's set to Disk D it still downloads in Disk C.
