| | Moving location of documents I was trying to move my documents to a different drive and I accidently changed the name under C:\Users\Barry to C:\Users\Downloads. My Documents are showing up twice under my username Barry\Documents and also in my Barry\Downloads\Documents. If I delete a file out of either it is deleted out of the actual folder C:\Users\Downloads. How can I restore this back to how it was origionally? -- Baredog |
