I've already changed where the stuff is getting downloaded which is why I said I was downloading the stuff to drive D and not Drive C but it keeps popping up a message about not having storage on Drive C even though I have it downloading on Drive D
Hi Knightmarex3,
To change the downloading location for chrome, Kindly follow the below step:
Go to Chrome > Settings > Downloads > Change it to another drive
To change the downloading location for apps like Xbox, Kindly follow the bellow step:
Go to Settings> System > Storage > Advanced storage settings
Click Where new content is saved
Under New apps will save to: > Change it to another drive
Note: for the apps that already installed, you need to reinstall it, to change the location, as moving the folder will corrupt the system files of the apps.
Let me know how it goes and I hope that helps.
Regards,
Kishen :)
I use chrome but it mainly happens when downloading stuff from apps such as Xbox or steam
