    changing the location of the downloads folder?


    I accidentally moved the downloads folder to disk d without creating any files, and the entire disk d became downloads.The problem is that the files in the d folder are included in the downloads folder and I cannot move them back to the c disk because there is no space. Even though I want to move them, it gives the error The list of normal subdirectories under "D:\System Volume Information" could not be created. Access is denied..How do I move the downloads folder back to disk C without moving the files?

    :)
