Restore Default Location of Personal Folders in Windows 10

Hello Jorge, and welcome to Ten Forums. :)

Are you getting this error message when trying the .reg download in step 5 of OPTION TWO?

Hello, and thank you for the quick reply. I already solve my issue, turns out easier than expected. I just needed to select "do not move the files" and all returns to normal

Thanks again!

Hello everyone, I am new to the forum. I have tried to move the desktop from C drive to D drive on my computer. During the process, stupidly, I failed to create sub folders (i.e d/user/a/desktop) and moved it directly to D drive. Now, anytime I save a file or folder in D drive it shows up on desktop. Tried to restore settings to original path and it gives an error "failed to build list of regular subdirectories under D:\System Volume Information, access is denied error.

Anyway around this without resetting the computer and losing time etc.. Thank you in advance for all the help and advice.

I downloaded the BAT file but posted first before I did anything. The C drive folder path C:\Users\(user-name)\Desktop" is already there. I will use BAT file and see what happens

It worked like a charm. Thank you for being there. I really appreciate it

Your second option helped me restore my local Pictures folder from OneDrive. I tried right clicking then properties and restoring the default location, but I kept getting an access error. Thank You!
