    Issues after cloning of SSD - cannot pin folders to quick access


    I cloned my old 250GB SSD with W10 to a new 500GB SSD using Macrium Reflect. All in all this has worked well, however one issue that annoys me is that I cannot Pin a folder to quick access. When trying to do this I get this error message: "The parameter is not correct". I could do this on the old SSD.

    Any possibilities to repair windows 10 or solve this issue directly?

    :)

    unpin and pin from quick access issues

    I have two hard drives. SSD for programs and HDD for storage.

    My videos, music and documents folders are on HDD and the quick access list pins work for them, but

    the downloads folder, also on the HDD, links to a folder on the SSD that doesn't exist. It refuses to unpin, and when I try to pin the version on the HDD nothing happens.

    I tried moving the downloads folder to the SSD and then the link would open that directory, but I still couldn't unpin the folder.

    I would like for the ability to unpin the downloads folder on the SSD and pin the downloads folder on the HDD.

    Folders with wrong location stuck in quick access.

    I just upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7. I have an SSD boot drive and a couple of storage mechanical drives. Back in the day, I moved all of the main libraries (Documents, Videos etc...) over to my (FIssues after cloning of SSD - cannot pin folders to quick access :) drive.

    After the upgrade, I unpinned all the (CIssues after cloning of SSD - cannot pin folders to quick access :) libraries from Quick Access and pinned the ones on (FIssues after cloning of SSD - cannot pin folders to quick access :), so they are quick to navigate to. However, there are a few file folders that cannot be removed from Quick Access. I right click, select "Remove from Quick
    Access" and nothing happens. When I click on one of these folders I get an error:

    There is no such location. The folder "Resume" is actually located at F:\My Documents\Resume.

    Any help removing these folders from Quick Access?
