Hello Everyone,

I have a small problem and I really hope you can help me. I recently bought a onedrive subscribtion so I wanted to move my document and picture folder to the onedrive folder. The result is that now my picture folder and document folder are the same. If I change the location of one of the folders, they both change to the new location.. I can't even take a screenshot because I don't know where it saves the picture..

I really hope you guys can help me!

Hi,
You could try right clicking the folder you can see, choose properties, location, followed by return to default location (click the button) and then apply.
See my screenshot:

An image from 'Document folder is the same as Picture folder'. Screenshot showing Windows Documents folder Properties window with Location tab open.


Something else to consider is system restore.
