Windows 10: Need Help: Changed Videos folder's directory to HDD

Hi so I'm a complete idiot, I wanted to change my Videos folder to my HDD so that it doesn't clutter up my SSD and I apparently misunderstood and now my videos folder just redirects to my harddrive completely as in, when viewing what used to be the Video's folder its name and redirection is just R:\.Now, I could try restoring the Videos folder directory to default but I'm terrified that it could wipe my harddrive or something in the process, I have like 500gb worth of extremely important files in there that I just can't risk losing. Would it be safe to do that, like will the HDD remain

:)

 

Directory Size Utility

Thanks buddy! Yea, this section's not dead. Kreij and I have big plans for this section. I don't want to give nothing away, but we have some bigger projects down the road. *Toast :toast: I feel I'm pretty good at coding with different languages, but I'm well behind Kreij's level of experience with those other Languages. I've been working on those other languages, and soon I'll feel comfortable enough to start, and not feel like I'm holding the project back. *Toast :toast:

Now on to your suggestions.

• maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that? Yea, that's been bothering me and I like your suggestion "Add Folder". I'll change it on the next release.
  
• Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs) I could add this, but let me see if I understand what you're asking. By subfolders you mean add all the folders in the left panel to the right panel? Those folders are all the subfolders in the "Get folder".
  
• maybe you also add export list to excel? I'll add this on the next release.
  
• there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too? I'll add this on the next release.
  
• and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories? I'll add this on the next release.

These are all great suggestions! Thanks Drone! *Toast :toast:

[HELP] Wanting to move video files into a master directory/folder

If all of the videos directories are inside a directory you could use the File Explorer search to list the files.
You could then select them all and then drag them to the desired directory.

If your setup is something like this:MASTER_DIRECTORY/DIR1/video1.avi
MASTER_DIRECTORY/DIR2/video2.avi
You could do this:

1. Search for *.avi
2. When the search finishes select all of the files ("Ctrl + A")
3. Drag them to the "MASTER_DIRECTORY" (or any other directory) in the Navigation pane.

In this example (in W7) I'm trying to move all of the mp4 files to the top level directory (Random):
(You'll need to click on the picture several times to see it full size)



The procedure should be the same in W10.
