Can't Restore Default Personal Folder Location
I wished to change the target location for my personal User folders such as Documents, My pictures and so forth, onto another drive. My primary drive is an SSD and I wanted to save as much space as possible. While changing the location for my first folder (the Documents folder) I typed in the drive I wanted it moved to, but instead of creating a folder called Documents on the drive, the drive itself became the Documents folder. So I right clicked the properties for that drive and tried to restore the Documents folder location to its default but it brings up the following error message: Failed to build the list of regular subfolers under "E:\System Volume Information" Access is Denied". What does that error mean? and how can I restore the default Documents folder target location?

Indeed, I ended up resorting to system restore...and it worked. However, with all the system tweaking I had done after the restore point was created I would have rather not resorted to that, but the problem was fixed. Thanks anyway.
