Windows 10: Setting up data in a separate HDD

I have a new computer which has OS on an SSD, and a separate HDD meant for all data called G:\.


I followed the instructions to move the default libraries "My Documents", "My Pictures", etc, from the SSD to the HDD, but the result is that ALL these folders now map to G:\ and all files in "My Documents" will also appear in every other library. I tried restoring these to default but the system does not allow me to. Can someone please advise me what I need to do to clean this up?

:)

Hi Johan,

It is possible that your
HDD was unreadable
causing the error message to appear. We recommend that you perform these troubleshooting steps and check if there are any changes:

• 
  Shutdown
  your
  PC.
  
• 
  Unhooked
  the
  HDD
  and
  turn on
  your
  PC.
  
• 
  Reconnect
  your
  HDD
  and
  restart
  your
  PC.
  

If the issue persists, we suggest that you contact your
laptop/computer's manufacturer
for further assistance.

Update us on how it goes.
