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?

Re: Moving location of documents

Hello,

what will happen if you change the name back?

Greetings,
