    Path for My docs folder after one drive install


    Ok So I installed OneDrive on a computer and see the Old path to my doc folder used to be "C:\Users\Name\Documents" but now it all goes to "C:\Users\Name\OneDrive\Documents" and that’s all fine BUT I have a couple applications that think the default location still is "C:\Users\Name\Documents" So How to I tell my system the Default for now for the path should be "C:\Users\Name\OneDrive\Documents" ??? IS there a registry place that holds the default location??

    :)

  2. Add a path to $PATH?

    what exactly do you need to decipher about that path line? also, what are you installing? perhaps i can help.

  3. Add a path to $PATH?

    Yeah, I think you're right. I think the purpose of the echo command was to check if ~/bin was in the $PATH file. My problem is that I can't decipher the output and I don't know how to add ~/bin to the $PATH file.

    Just for clarification, the snippet of instructions I gave is just a few steps in the installation process. Nothing is actually supposed to be installed with those steps.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Path for My docs folder after one drive install

    Misplaced My Docs folder of pictures.


    Upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10 yesterday [free update]. Checked my Docs containing my phot folders. Last one being Plant Pathology. Folder is missing. It's taken me months building this folder.
    In the Start area, I recognized one of the missing pics, displayed as a tile. Did something that removed the tile and listed, 'photos' in the margin. Clicking on this, the screen opens up showing my lost pictures but in reverse order. Also a vast number of other pictures that are saved in My Docs, but individual folders.

    HELP PLEASE. Can I take whatever steps to restore my folders to My Doc's and at the same time prevent windows from ever again making collections.
    Many thanks.
    Mike.
