  2. Unable to save files too second hard drive

    To anyone who can help me . No matter what I try I cannot seem to save individual files too my second hard drive " D"

    everytime I create a .doc or xls file or alter an existing file I cannot save it to this hard drive at all . I have gotten into properties too check access for administrator and users and all have full access , it just doesn't seem to work

    Help most frustrating , it will let me save stuff to " C" drive but this is a small solid state drive as compared to the second hard drive "D"

  3. Changing Default Save Location Reverts Back to C: drive

    I tried going into storage settings to change the default app install category to my secondary drive D:, but it will not save new apps to that drive. It creates a WindowsApps folder there, but I cannot open it even though I followed the guide to take ownership
    of this folder (the guide worked for the WindowsApps folder in CCannot save to D Drive :).

    Any idea? The "new apps saved to" isn't greyed out, but it won't save to D:. I have a second hard drive that I wanted to use for games, but I cannot get Rise of Tomb Raider windows store app edition off of my main hard drive and to my secondary hard drive.

    Yes, I have the big November update, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get Tomb Raider.

    Cannot save to D Drive

    What error do you get? The permission will be for another user which will show as numbers you need to take ownership of one folder at a time as it may inherite from above

    Basically that I do not have permission. I will take ownership of each folder at a time and see if that works. Thanks for your help.

    Open File Explorer.....locate files in "C" drive you wish to transfer...highlight files by dragging over holding down left mouse...right click mouse and click copy.
    Move mouse over "D" drive left click to indicate where......then right click to paste.
    You could if you wish create folders in which to store in "D" prior to transfer.
