Very restrictive. I have only one drive, so no choices for me here. Honestly, this is the one thing that needs to be fixed and always has needed to be fixed. My workplace has three shares on each PC; a z: drive, an x: drive and a w: drive as well as c: and a usb. The only options I get to default to in the above scenario are c: and the usb. Any idea on why this is? Thank you for sharing this procedure.
I have spent hours trying to figure it out. I have Windows 10 and when I click the drop-down menu, it only gives me OS as the default option. Can you please help me make another drive option, other than the OS default? I have no problems with MS setting up the defaults as they are for those that like everything done for them, however not giving me an effective option to manage my by own file system is arrogant, extemely annoying and unproductive.
It will hasten my move to Linux. Microsoft, your products are total garbage. Read the above comments. You waste my time. Bill Gates, your company is turning to crap. Where are you? You actually might just kill laptops because of the total crap that you are pushing down our throats.
No options, no capabilities. Maybe I want to save my stuff where I want it to be? Maybe you could give that option to choose. No wonder you guys love socialism.
I have set everything to default to my second drive, and it saves even through reboots, etc. But content still ends up downloading into C: instead. Any tips for this? Also, I have run Disk Management checks, downloaded the manufacturers diagnostic application, etc. Everything says its good. But nothing will save to it. I was under the impression that computers were supposed to save work and make us more efficient. Am I reading something incorrectly?

Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. I have a lab full of elementary school children and having them walk through changing the file save location every single time is intensely annoying.
I should be able to specify a default file save location - and it is NOT the Pictures folder! This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread. I have the same question 0. Report abuse. Details required :. Cancel Submit. Babu V.
