Which user folder did you move to another location?
As you can see, moving user folders to another location iceland mobile database isn’t that difficult. You can move them from the C drive to the D drive , or even to another folder on the same C drive . For example, on my desktop computer, I do this every time I install Windows because I prefer to keep the Documents folder on another drive that isn’t affected by a Windows crash. This gives me extra flexibility and peace of mind, ensuring that it’s a little harder to lose my files even if Windows crashes. What about you? Do you use a similar approach?
