Windows folder disappears after redirection to another drive

I redirected a windows (MY DOCUMENTS) folder to a different hard drive using the TAB LOCATION. The problem is that I didn't refer to a folder, to the car. Now, all files and subfolders of MY DOCUMENTS are on the new disk, but not contained in a folder. It is a problem for 2 reasons:

1. among the other files on the disk are mingled with MY DOCUMENTS - therefore more difficult to find.

2. If I need to change the location again, so I can not, because there is no record as to move, and using the shortcut MY DOCUMENTS isn't a LOCATION TAB

I tried to look for MY DOCUMENTS, but now all I find is the shortcut on the desktop. This shortcut locates the contents of MY DOCUMENTS, but I can't locate a folder to the new drive.

Hello

Go to your USER folder and right-click on the drive letter for the drive that you moved the files to...

It will simply be something like D:\

Click on its location as you did before, except this time select "Restore Default"

You will probably be asked if you want to move the files... Select no... otherwise, it will fail...

You should now have your file back.

Create the folder that you want to put your 'My Documents' in... Call My Documents if you wish...

Now all over again... This time, select the new folder that you have done on the 2nd drive...

If the process is completed, you should be all set and ready to go...

Unfortunately, you have to manually copy / paste all the files that were supposed to be in the folder, in the folder...

  • Windows XP hangs after installing the new drive hard & software

    My 20 GB hard drive was almost full and the computer (Dell GX240) has been slow, I installed a new 160 GB drive. After loading Windows XP, Linksys, McAfee, MS Office and MS Windows updates would crash randomly. Restart the system would allow him to run for a few minutes and then hang again.
    I reformatted the drive and partitioned to 80 GB and then reloaded all programs above with the same results.
    I reformatted back to 20 GB, loaded XP and Linksys and the same problem occurred.

    The drive of 20 GB that I removed to install the largest capacity disk has been reinstalled after the failure of a larger. I am currently running on the same pc and the old drive. I have another drive of 20 GB that had XP installed on it earlier. Thinking that I might try that one that I started to load some of my other programs operating and when I installed Office 2007 for household use and selected updates online blocked system shortly after. The problem is therefore not only on new facilities. The reader that I use currently a Office 2007 is installed and it works fine.

    What is the largest disk that will handle XP? I heard it's 137 GB, is it true? If I can make it work how would you recommend I have partition the drive of 160 GB?

    Thank you

    XP can handle drives of 1 TB to NTFS without problem - it's the motherboard on computers more elders who may have problems, that it is not compatible LBA.
    There is really no need to partition the disk, but I would tend to opt for about 60 GB for the operating system and 100 GB of data and then move the folder My Documents (using the option in its properties) of the data partition. This allows to separate the data and programs and means a lot less work if a reinstall is needed.

  • Of Mini Windows taskbar disappear after closing one - boring!

    When I have several emails open outlook and I want to quickly close a whole bunch of them I want to be able to close the mini window.  However after the closure of each of them by clicking on the red x, the set of mini windows disappears and I have to move the mouse down to the button of the taskbar for the mini windows reappear and then I can close one that follows and then repeat again and again.  It is very annoying when you have a dozen or so open emails.   How can I make other minis windows stay on the screen, so I can just click each red x one by one, without returning to the task between the two bar button?  It would be so much faster.

  • Can not recover the Windows 7 desktop after replacing the hard drive

    I bought a new HP Pavillion Elite (HPE-240f) in August 2010. A week ago my hard drive has no SMART short self-test during systematic hardware diagnostics. I installed a new hard drive of the same size - 1 TB and could never make it work properly. I tried the following (in that order).

    1. using a system repair disc, I got the system from a previous image (which I did shortly after the purchase, install my own software and configuration of all). It worked, but then I noticed that Windows Update was not working. I ran various Microsoft diagnostic tools and discovered that some (unspecified) system files have been damaged or missing. All the fixes I tried didn't work. I ran hardware diagnostics extended, but no problem not found.

    2. I tried to restore the system to the default settings by using the original image on the D partition. At first it seemed to work, but at the last moment when the system started, I saw a message on the screen that Setup is starting services and then got a warning saying that services failed because of (unspecified) problems with hardware.

    3. I tried to restore the system from the system recovery discs and a message "system recovery disks do not support this computer."

    4. I found this Cyberlink utility on the HP website, dealing with precisely this issue. I created a CD tried and it didn't work.

    5. I found this document on the HP Web site, saying that if you are replacing a hard drive with sectors of 512 bytes with a new advanced Format (AF) drive (with areas of 4 096 bytes) and your system was manufactured before October 2010 (as mine was), you must get the new HP recovery disks. I thought I finally found the root of my problems (since the new drive is indeed AF and the old man is not) and ordered HP recovery discs.

    6. the disks arrived today, and I noticed that the version number of the software (for Windows 7 version) is almost the same as on the computer, except that the last digit is 9 on disks and 6 on the computer - I guess it's an update to deal with the problem hard drive AF. However, I get 'system recovery disks do not support this computer' error, if I use the utility from CyberLink recovery disks or not. To be on the safe side, I even used a new hard disc (new 1 TB) right out of the box (never partioned and installed previously) and connected the original keyboard supplied with the computer (I also unplugged everything except the monitor, keyboard and mouse). However, I get the same message. Just out of curiosity I tried to put back the original hard drive (certainly not in best shape, even if the system always starts with him) and still could not recover the system.

    What else can I try?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I noticed that if I leave my PC running for an hour or more unattended (even with my screensaver on and the monitor off), that the icons in the taskbar and the desktop will disappear off the screen when I go back and try to use it.  The only thing I can do is to move my mouse and open some things by right-clicking the mouse, but what is it.  I have no other choice than to make a difficult stop (hold the power button until the PC turns off).  If it helps, my PC is a Dell Inspiron 531 that runs on Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - Bit.  At first, I thought it was a problem caused by Internet Explorer 9 (that I have long eliminated from my PC and thankfully returned IE8), but I was wrong.  In addition, my antivirus program is Norton 360, and I run almost religiously to combat ill will on my PC.  If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it.

    ADD: Also, after the desktop and the taskbar icons disappear when I try to bring up the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del, the screen goes black and I can just press ESC to return to the white (except for my desktop wallpaper) desktop computer.  Again, any help will be appreciated.

    Hello

    1 did you changes to the software to the computer before the show?

    Start the computer in safe mode and check if the problem is solved or not. If the problem persists not perform the clean boot.

    Was: start the computer in safe mode.

    Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not work in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed.

    Start your computer in SafeMode (Windows Vista)

    B: Perform the clean boot

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: perform step 7 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.
