    Hi

    On win7 i did the following.
    And i found it musch easyer then what is in the tutorials Users Folder - Move Location in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

    Did some nows if it works on win 10.

    On windows 7
    i did the following
    Did a full installation.
    Than i boot from the install dvd and go tho repair pc.
    Go to the command prompt runing as administrator.
    ->net user administartor /active:yes
    ->robocopy /mir xj c:\users\ d:\users
    c and d are the drive letters c to copy from to drive d
    -> reboot
    ->logon with the username
    ->start->searchfield regedit.
    ->hk_local_machine\software\mircosoft\windows nt\currentVersion\profileList
    -> change the %SystemDrive% to the drive letter of the hd where the users directory is coppied to
    -> and also the in the profilelist change %SystemDrive% in the directory with the long name.

    In win7 it works fine

  2. Moving the location of the default Users directory.

    You need to be aware that when two replies are posted in quick succession, the second respondent might not see the first reply. I never ever add my own reply to someone else's reply unless it contains a serious error.

    Since you ask - saving personal files to an external storage medium might affect the Windows 10 backup feature (File Version Control). The OP needs to ensure that his personal files get backed up.

  3. Moving the location of the default Users directory.

    My PC was delivered with the default Users root directory at C:\Users . Unfortunately, the C:| drive is actually a relatively small and fast SSD. I have two decently-sized hard drives on the E:\ and I:\ locations, and I want to move all user data to these
    by default. How do I change the default location of Users?

    move user directory stange problem after moving

    I guess some variables are not set correctly and Windows 10 is still trying to locate the User data in the wrong folder.
    Make sure that all variables are set correctly.

    Go over each step and each setting once more. I am pretty sure you have made a Typo or such... *Smile

    Good luck
