    Download folder is the same as Disk D

    I provided an illustrated tutorial to move User folders:
    https://www.dummies.com/computers/operating-sys...

    Right click an empty area of D folder to create New folders, name them Desktop and Downloads.

    Then one at a time right click the shell Desktop and Downloads folder at C:\Users to choose Properties, then Location, then Move, browse to the new folders you created on D to Select these, choose Apply, allow it to move the files in those folders if you want
    them moved too.
