Well I was messing around with laptop and I found out that I could change the location of my 'my documents','downloads''my picture' and stuffs like that to another folder. So, thats exactly what I did. I moved the location of all those files to my secondary harddrive. During that process I missed a step and ended up saving all my 'my documents' files on on the harddrive without any folder holding in it. For example, It was saved in E:/ instead of E:/My documents.
Now I screwed it up. Everything that gets saved to my documents gets thrown to the harddrive but not to the folder because i forgot to specify the folder.
Is there anyway to fix this?

Well, open that Location tab where you have changed the path and click Restore Default.

Yeah, I would right click on My Documents and select Restore Default. However, I would not have it automatically move the contents back, since you made the E drive your My Documents, I believe it will move everything. So just reset default, and then manually move things back.

I did reset everything but I could not do it to the documents folder as there is no folder. Im not sure where to right click =.=
worse to worse i gotta do a clean install again.
Would running system restore work?
update
-looks like i fixed it- just right click on the whole e driver and and restored my document location. Silly me.
cant find where i placed my desktop and download folder though. Must have deleted the whole dam thing accidentally.
Messed with my folder location.
