I have Terabyte storage and save my Documents, Music, Photos, and downloads in SUB FOLDERS of a drive. Is this no longer possible?
Is there a way to move the old documents folder that is already on C drive? This is nice, but, it doesn’t seem to work! I have a lot of documents in C drive for Steam, mostly mods for certain games and I can’t figure out how to move them or save them to the D drive. It is frustrating, any help would be great. Thanks!
