    Easy, figure out where you want them, then drag-n-drop them to thier proper location. When downloading or saving files, be sure of where the file is going to be saved. By default, My Documents is where most things will be saved. When you're asked to save the file, browse to the location of your choice (make a new folder first if needed), and save it where you want it.

    Hi Kav,

    Welcome to MGs. Kind of depends on what your moving around, what files and where do you want to move them?

    HI

    Not 100% sure of what your trying to do but if files are in Windows Documents folder then they will be downloaded and saved files, only way they would normally get their is if they are temps from an install of a downloaded app or you have installed an app in that location by accident.


    Moving system files around is not advisable as the ones in that location may if moved overwrite a system file in Windows > System/32 and corrupt it.


    A screenshot of that folder and files may help determine whats up?
