Good evening everyone,

In the evening, noticing that the hard drive (C:) where my desktop was installed had no more storage space, I looked up a trick on the internet to change the desktop to a different hard drive. Since I have two hard drives on my laptop, I tried the trick. Big problem after testing this trick, my hard drive (D:) has turned into the computer's desktop. Everything I put in there gets added to the desktop. It's really annoying because there are a lot of folders and I'm getting lost.

Can someone please help me?

Thanks in advance.

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 63.0.3239.132

    Hi,

    Do some organizing on your desk.

    For example: Create a folder named D and put everything in it :D

    Thank you for your response, will reformatting my computer solve the problem?

    If you reinstall Windows, then yes for sure.

    Hello,

    As you made a mistake, you can restore the Desktop to its original location

    To avoid another mistake in the registry (there is indeed a manual method by modifying registry directories), you have .Bat files ready here

    You can use only the .Bat File for the Desktop → here

    Save the .bat file
    put it on the Desktop
    run the .bat file.

    Then restart your PC
