Change default save location

Radmtber · Aug 13, 2022

Howdy y'all. I just picked up a new computer. Asus g15ce-b11. It came with windows 10 but I immediately installed 11. It has an SSD and hdd. I changed my default save location to the D drive (everything but new apps) I downloaded an audio file from YouTube as well as some video files off of a micro SD card and it still wants to put it on C drive. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I would like to have everything other than app go into the D drive.

Right-click Download folder from your account profile folder C:\Users\UserName\Downloads and from Properties click Location tab and click Move button.

So I take it changing the default save locations really doesn't do anything?

I always do it manually, so i won't know.

You have to first build the folders on the drive where you want them located.
Example:

Then follow this tutorial to move your user folders to the second drive. How to move user folders to different location on Windows 10
