Windows 10: Tried to move my Doc folder from my C drive to my D drive but "location" in properties is...

Hi,So I've been reading multiple peoples posts about the same problem, tried to follow what others been telling them to do and still, nothing. I'm playing the Sims 4 and all of a sudden my mods disappeared my mods are in the EA folder in the documents folder. Since I moved the game from my C drive to my D drive a couple of days ago I thought that moving my documents folder to my D drive was also a good idea. When I tried to do this, the "location" when clicking properties were gone, I might add that "location" is there when I'm trying to move other stuff. I do not have my docs folder synced

Can't move Documents folder from C\users\username\Documents to any place in D drive. No location tab in the properties window.

Hello,
I wanted to move my documents folder to D drive as my C drive was filling up.
I see Documents folder at 2 places --

1)in C:\users\username\Documents
2) in the space above the drives in the This PC window in windows explorer, also in quick access in the left menu in windows explorer
I changed the location in the location tabs of the 2nd Document folder that i described above(ie the quick access or inside 'This PC') and the location says D drive

But if i go inside C drive to C:\users\username\Documents and right click and click on properties , the location it shows is C:\users\username\Documents , and there is no location tab in that properties window.

I want to move this C drive document folder to D drive . Please let me know.
Thank you.
