    Move Documents off of c:\users\username onto f:\user\username

    I want all of the files in c:\users\username moved to f:\users\username but make them referenced by the Microsoft "aliases". So for instance, the Microsoft alias "Documents" would actually exist in f:\users\username instead of c:\users\username documents,
    etc. I can easily do this in linux, but cannot seem to make it work in Windows. Also, for some reason, in Windows Explorer sometimes the alias is shown as "This PC > Documents". I would also like that alias to point to f:\users\username\documents. I would
    like this pattern to be consistent across all of the directories (folders) within c:\user\username.

    How can I make this happen. What are the downsides of doing this (if it is even possible)?

    Thanks,

    Ken

    How to change locations of Documents or Pictures to C:\Users\username\Documents or Pictures

    In my new computer setup, Windows 10 set up the folders Documents and Pictures under "This PC" to C:\Users\username\OneDrive\Documents and C:\Users\username\OneDrive\Pictures. I want to set up these folders to C:\Users\username\Documents and C:\Users\username\Pictures.
    I tried to change location through folder properties\location\restore default. But windows did not allow me to do it, showing an error message "Can't move the folder because there is a folder in the same location that can't be redirected. Access is denied".
    How do I change the folders of Documents (Pictures) under "This PC" to
    C:\Users\username\Documents (Pictures)? Thanks.

    C/users/%username%/Documents not found

    This PC\Documents does not equal users\username\Documents

    Since you are logged in with Hotmail account there is a possibility onedrive is running and backing up your files.

    Location for onedrive is usually c:/user/username/onedrive/documents

    Location for normal document without onedrive:

    c:/user/username/documents
