Thanks, dalchina, I'll certainly give that a try on the next download.

The same happens in both browsers.

When downloading a file, the "Save As" screen is not is alphabetical order, making the target folder difficult to find.

Two screenshots; one is the "Downloads" folder, the other "Save As" screen...

Mission Accomplished...
Microsoft account removed, new local account added.

Not found... But "ANON" is the account I made, and the account at the lock screen that is used to logon.
Guess that's why it does not show in C:\Users ... It's there, but it's not there.

This read refers to user profiles that have been deleted, and how to recover them, which doesn't really fit my particular case.

I'll go & read, and let you know if anything was helpful.

Made no difference.

I am logged on, using the new local account, and have not used the MS account since making the new local account.
I have logged in & out of the new local account at least 10 times.

Did a clean install of W10, to prepare Wife's old Dell Inspiron laptop for liquidation. The W10 version is: 22H2 Build 19045.2364.
It was originally a W7 laptop, upgraded to W10, when MS offered the...

In the course of reading, I stumbled across this tutorial on Restore Default Location of Screenshots Folder
I applied the same steps, and it worked on both the “Documents” and “Pictures” folders… So...

Thank you much.... Now I've got a lot of reading to do!

I had thought of just creating another account, before I posted to this forum. I was in hopes that there was a way to change those folder paths, without creating a new account, and going through the...

That's sugar-coating the underhanded practices by MS, of giving you 5GB of OneDrive for free?
You either have to buy more storage, or have misdirected system folders.
MS's OneDrive is like Octopus...

I have always stored all DATA on a separate data partition in the event of an OS failure, that data could always be retrieved by booting into Linux and retrieving anything that was not backed up on...

That worked... Thanks a bunch!

My "Downloads" folder is not in alphabetical order, making any specific folder very hard to find, when downloading.
How do I reorder it by name instead of by download date?

Many thanks to NavyLCDR and spunk, for the detailed help.
Everything worked out perfectly and I'm marking this as solved.

Your assumption was correct, I know UEFI is not a format option, but FAT32 is the file system for the boot partition.
My original "Q" was, is the partition formatted FAT32 with MiniTool, or is that...

I don't mean to come across as a smarty, but I'm sorry, I do not see the relevance in this answer, to the question asked. I have already identified the boot partition (the only FAT32 partition) that...

Haven't had a chance to do as you have lined it out for me to do, but perhaps this evening.
In either event, I will post back how things went, and not leave you hanging.
I thank you for your timely...

Been using MiniTool Partition Wizard Free, for years along with GParted. The combo of the two is how I was able to move the free space from the end of the drive, to the boot partition.
Had I known a...

Sorry for not getting back sooner, but was on the road driving from S Carolina to Florida.

What would be the proper way to rewrite the W10 bootloader?
Out of the partitions 99MB, 91.90MB is used, leaving only 7.10MB unused.
Too many Linux dual-boot sessions have grown the used portion...
