    Music & Picture - Same Location


    Music & Picture - Same Location-thispc.jpg

    Somehow, I've managed to set the location for Music & Pictures to the same location i.e. K Drive.

    Restoring to default locations makes no difference, or should I say that whatever change I do to Music is replicated in Pictures & visa versus.

    Any ideas on how to sort this out.

    Click on where they are installed and drag them individually to where you wish to place them

    Unless I've misunderstand your suggestion, it doesn't work.

    Drag a HD location to create a link in Pictures & it also appears in Music.

    Check Settings > Storage

    If it looks ok, you might try changing the location there anyway to see if it unravels the relationship.

    Thanks for suggestion, but still no luck.

    I don't know if this will help, but the way that I always set my file locations is by clicking on the file icon in the task bar, on the top should be files for videos, pictures, music, downloads, etc. Right click on a file icon, music for example, scroll down to properties, click on properties and open file location. Click on the tab that says location and there will be a screen that says where the files are and right in the middle there is an icon that says MOVE. Click on move and you can set where you want those files to be stroed. You can do this with each type of media separately.
