New content not being saved to desktop on Drive D
Further to my previous post ... https://www.dell.com/community/en/conversations/windows-general/how-to-set-drive-d-as-the-default-for-data/65930a438a6e602839a239e9
if I create a folder on the desktop, or save a file to the desktop, the content still is saved to a folder on Drive C, not D. As per attached image, all my new content settings are pointed to Drive D. How do I fix taht please?
TIA .... Greg

Hi Greg! It seems like there might be an issue with the default save location settings. Double-check your system's default save locations in the Windows settings. Go to 'Settings' > 'System' > 'Storage' > 'Change where new content is saved anime.' Ensure you've set Drive D as the default location for various file types. If the issue persists, consider checking your user profile's folder location settings. Hope this helps

While the method you were given is certainly correct, it doesn't always work, for some reason unknown (to me.) I personally have had consistent success by using the Location tab.

HI Greg, I cannot view or analyze images as my capabilities are limited to text-based interactions. However, I can guide you through some general steps to troubleshoot and resolve the issue you described.
Here are steps you can follow to ensure that your files are saved to Drive D instead of Drive C:
Check Default Save Locations:
Change Default Save Location in Windows:
Change Default Save Location in Individual Applications:
User Libraries:
Check Environment Variables:
System Restore:
Remember to back up important files before making any significant changes to your system. If the problem persists, you may need to consult with your computer's support or IT department for further assistance.
