  2. Copying files to Desktop: "There is not enough space on Desktop"

    Hello,

    Copying files from external HD to my new PC and:

    "There is not enough space on Desktop. You need an additional 210 GB to copy these files"

    I have 2 drives on the machine:
    • SSD (for apps)
    • HD (1.8 Tb for files) .. when I copy files to desktop, they should technically go into the HD, right? (see presets below, file are set to go into the HD, not the SDD) ... but they DIDN'T, they all went into the SSD !
