Need to redirect "C:\Users\Dave\Documents" to "D:\doher\Documents"

This is what I used:

I changed my location for 'Documents' and now Drive D has the 'Documents' icon

I've always changed the location of Documents and Downloads to my 'Data' partition. I just did a clean install of Windows 10 and changed Documents location to drive D. Usually the icon for these two folders follows and displays on drive D.

Not sure why it didn't this time, but can you tell me how I can change these 2 folder icons? I know how to change icons, but I don't see these 2 icons in the list of Windows icons.

Thx.

 

I messed up moving Documents folder location to D:\

I messed up trying to move my Documents folder location to my D:\ data partition.

I was following this tutorial, but not carefully enough: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/...dows-10-a.html

I didn't create a new Documents folder on the D:\ partition first, as the tutorial says to do. I clicked on "Move..." and selected the D:\ partition itself for the new location.

Now, in the menu on the left in File Explorer:

* Under Quick Access, it no longer shows a Documents folder, instead it says D:\ and has a document icon.

* Under my User Profile, it no longer shows a Documents folder, instead it has the name of my D:\ partition and the hard drive icon.

* If I click on my D:\ drive label under This PC, it shows the empty My Bluetooth folder that should be in the Documents folder.

I then tried making a Documents folder on the D:\ drive and moving it again, but I get the error: The folder can't be moved here. Can't redirect a parent into a child. The specified path is invalid."

How do I undo this and try again? I'm going to ask before I make it worse. I didn't have any documents in the folder yet.

I hope this is clear. Thank you for your time.
