  1. Moved downloads file to a D: drive file, files merged and can't fix


    So i only like having Windows start up and such on my ssd, the res tof my files like documents, music, videos, etc I have in a file on my s drive called D:\teeja


    However once I moved downloads to here's, I mistakenly didn't make a folder for it, so it merged the folder with it. In an attempt unmerge I moved the downloads folder to a few other folders but now they're all downloads folders. After alot of deleting, resetting, moving everything looks normal except now when I change my downloads folder in google chrome I click on what is labelled "downloads" but it comes up as shashd as I spammed my keyboard on a previous rename file and just


    Anyone got a clue how I could fix this?

    :)

    Defrag: Move Large Files To End Of Drive?

    Hey guys, I saw Defraggler has the option to move large files to the end of the drive, I picked movies (MKV/MP4 etc.)

    Is it good to move these large files to the end of the drive? I'm assuming it's for less used files so it doesn't read them as fast or something?

    Should I do this or just put it back to normal?

    Stored files in Hard Drive

    You can use Windows search. Just search for *.* on a desired drive. When list is done just arrange them by size LOL.

    You can do it via command line as well and make an output text file showing files and their sizes (but without arrangement)
