But it only contains one folder, not the several folders and files that appear in My Documents in Windows Explorer. Is this some odd form of symbolic link?Clayton Cramerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03258083387204776812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-61369329917673651622017-08-20T15:22:30.920-06:002017-08-20T15:22:30.920-06:00I hate the whole windows user file system.

It would make a lot more sense to put the data on a different drive than system and software files.Hank Archerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08603815583299960803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-80533968149002768662017-08-20T10:59:17.884-06:002017-08-20T10:59:17.884-06:00I just went to my Documents folder and clicked on ...I just went to my Documents folder and clicked on the up arrow immediately to the left of the path display box. This took me to a folder called "This PC" which displayed a number of folders, including "Documents". I right-clicked on the "Documents" folder, and selected "Properties". <br /><br />One of the properties is "Location", which in my case is C:\Users\Karl.<br /><br />See what yours lists.Karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09767954910569442805noreply@blogger.com
