A great way to save space on your main drive
How to Change the Default Location of User Folders in Windows 11
If you have an old computer or a new computer with a small SSD drive as your primary drive, you may need to periodically move data out of the default Windows user folders to a second hard drive or even an external drive to save space.
The default folders I'm talking about are Downloads, Documents, Videos, Music, etc. By default, all of these folders are located on the same partition as your system partition, which is usually C. The path is normally C:/Users/username/foldername.
If you need some extra space on your main partition for applications or something else, it’s not too difficult to move those default folders to a new location. The nice thing is that you can move just one or all of them as needed. So if your Videos folder is the only large folder taking up space, you can move that and leave the other folders alone.
