Thread: Move My Documents

Now that hard disks are larger and cheaper than ever, it's easy to keep documents and programs separate. If you've added a new hard disk, one simple way to stay organised is to move your My Documents folder over onto it. To do this click the Start button, right-click My Documents and select Properties. Click the Move button and then choose a new location - usually on the new hard disk. Click OK once again and click Yes to move all the existing documents to the new location. Using this method rather than simply moving the files also tells Windows where to save files in future.
