How can I move the folder of my users on a different Partition?
Hi, I recently bought Windows 7 for my PC.
I want to know how to move my complete record of users (C:\Users) to my D drive partition, that make (D:\Users) and then remove the users from the C drive folder, so that all my files and user data are stored on my D drive partition, since my C drive is for the OS and drivers only. Now, I know that you can move files within your name in the users, by right-click folder and clicking on the location tab, but this option is not available on the users folder itself. If it is not possible to move all of the users folder, find at least one solution where I can move my folder by name (C:\Users\Jord) D drive instead.
Thanks in advance

I answered this question at least three times in the last few days/weeks. Please visit the following links. Some are on the folder C:\Users (work folder to be more general) while others refer to the same concept, but for different folders. I hope this helps.

How can I move a folder for every user of C: / continue on another internal drive?
Hello
I had a good read of the site, looked at a lot of pages & get more & more irritated.
I recently acquired a new PC. I opted for a 128 GB SSD to run the operating system & some programs that use a lot of processing (editing)

I hope not :(
Also, I heard that SSDS have a finite number of times that you can record in them.
Help, please. I have spent rather a lot of money on this machine & it allows you to respond to my needs, instead of frustrating me as much as my old vista machine did well...
Thank you for what you can offer in ordinary English.
You cannot move the 'Users' all things, but you can redirect "My Documents" to another drive... See here...

How can I copy the folder my documents in my iCloud drive and then I sync the two after that?
How can I copy the folder my documents in my iCloud drive and then I sync the two after that?
You can simply drag in iCloud reader, but I pass and move documents in their files app instead. It will probably take a while to download all documents.
It is not a way to sync without some third party software that synchronizes folders, or learn how to use rsync in the Terminal.
Instead of synchronization, simply use the iCloud drive in the 'Documents' folder after you move the files.

How can I move the outlook express emails from an XP PC to an another XP PC that has the same e-mail address without overwriting existing messages on this second PC?
I need to group together all messages from e-mail in a PC and to retire the first PC.
This could be problematic. I guess or OE is over? This would make it easy.One thing you could do requires some manual work, but much less removal of dupes. For example, the Inbox. In the machine, you are going to scrap, create a new folder and move all messages in your Inbox to it. After you import on the other machine, you can drag the messages you need this folder in the Inbox, and then remove the user created the folder.And then there are tools to remove the dupes. This one for example.

I need to close a user profile, but I want to save my photos. How can I move them to a new user profile?
The same way you would to move or to copy any other file - copy on a USB key or a folder outside the records of user documents and then log in as a new user and backup.

Changes are lost if you can't point LR to a good copy of your images.
If you made a backup of your external hard drive, you can copy this backup on your new drive; Then, as long as the folder structure is the same the old disk, you point just LR on the top level of the new disk files in folders, and LR Panel will reconnect everything for you.

How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal. I am a novice. Thank you very much.
1. Please select from the menu bar Terminal
▹ terminal preferences... ▹ Profiles ▹ Shell
If the run command box is checked, uncheck it or enter the command to run automatically (if any), each opening of a Terminal window. Note: this is not how you define a default shell.
2. If step 1 does not resolve the problem, see below.
Back up all data.
Select
New Shell command ▹
in the Terminal menu bar. Uncheck the box marked
Run the command inside a shell
If it is enabled.
Copy and paste the following line into the text box that appears, and then press return:
/bin/mkdir disabled_shell_files
Close the Terminal window that opens. Repeat with this line:
/bin/mv .profile .bash_history .bash_profile .bashrc .inputrc disabled_shell_files
History Shell and former initialization files will be saved in a directory named "disabled_shell_files" at the top level of your home directory. It is normal that some of these files do not exist, and therefore, you will get error "no file".
Close the window and open a new test.
You may already know that files with name starting in '. ' are not visible in the Finder by default. So, if you open the folder that you created in the Finder, it will appear as empty, even if it is not. If you need to recover a portion of the data in the files of the shell, use a shell such as nano-based text editor (1). Make sure that you're not recreating the problem. Otherwise, you can delete the folder.

How can I move the taskbar back to the bottom?
Help please. How can I move the taskbar to back down on the side?
Hello
try to do this:
To unlock the taskbar
Right-click an empty space on the taskbar. If Lock the taskbar has a check mark next to it, the taskbar is locked. You can unlock it by clicking Lock the taskbar, which removes the check mark.
To move the taskbar
Click an empty space on the taskbar, and then hold down the mouse button as you drag the taskbar to one of the four edges of the desktop. When the taskbar is where you want it, release the mouse button.
Note
To lock the taskbar into place, right-click an empty space on the taskbar, and then click Lock the taskbar so that the check mark appears. Locking the taskbar helps prevent it being moved or resized accidentally.

How can I move the screen picture to the right, about half a ince to fill the scree properly and allow a full view of the icons?
The problem is with the settings of your monitor. One of the buttons on the front of your monitor will take you in the settings of your monitor. Select the option which moves the video horizontally, use the arrow keys to move the right way and press the settings button to exit. Should be pretty simple.
