  1. Location disappeared in properties after watching tutorial!


    So I have been trying my best to move my documents to my external drive because one of my games takes up a lot of storage and I was told moving my documents was gonna be the best choice. But as I was moving it, it said it could not be moved so I tried to look up a tutorial on how to get that out the way since everyone else had no issue moving the location. The tutorial had me change a few things in the registry and I went back to my folder seeing that my location is now gone.I'm bummed out and just wanna try and get my documents to my drive cause I've been trying for like 2 days straight but n

  2. Location-tab in Properties

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    The information provided by you in the post, seems to be the Location tab is missing under
    Properties.



    Usually the Location tab will be present under
    Properties
    for the folders listed under Quick Access (Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures) and folders listed under
    This PC (3d Objects, Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Videos).



    In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, please provide us the screenshot of the windows where you are not able to get the
    Location tab under properties. (Please follow the steps mentioned in the

    screenshot
    posted by Shawn ‘Cmdr’ Keene on Oct 2, 2015 to post the screenshots.) Do not share any personal information in the screenshots.



    We await your response.

    All icon images have disappeared, and can't open app properties


    I have tried step 1 and 2- they made no difference.
    Step 3- found corrupt files but unable to repair
    I did the restore health command and got this result:

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth


    Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
    Version: 10.0.10586.0


    Image Version: 10.0.10586.0


    [==========================100.0%==========================]


    Error: 0x800f081f


    The source files could not be found.
    Use the "Source" option to specify the location of the files that are required to restore the feature. For more information on specifying a source location, see Configure a Windows Repair Source.


    The DISM log file can be found at C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log
