I wanted to clean up my laptop and I realize that I have stored all my photos and Word files on my desktop, for example xD Where and how can I move the files somewhere else without deleting them?
Make a Photos folder and a Word Files folder on the desktop
The magic word is "copy and paste"!
The files are not saved on the desktop. The folder only serves as a shortcut, which means that they are on the normal data carrier.
?
Then he has it twice and the desktop is just as full you Schlaubi
Yes, the desktop is a folder like any other.
I have no idea what that means. The desktop is not a separate data carrier.
Only engineers, digital natives and the laptop manufacturer can do that
However, I wanted to delete it from my desktop so that it is empty. Do I have to move the files to the SSD or where?
I mean only the photos that I want to move somewhere else?
What exactly do you not understand about it?
Mark, copy and paste files into a folder of your choice!
Everyone should be able to do that.
In the event of deletion, delete the old files, you Schlaubi!
But when I delete the pictures from the desktop, are they completely gone or not?
That can be good.
So do I have to move the pictures to the SSD or where? Xd
Make a folder under "Documents" and copy it there. You can also just make a folder on the desktop where you put all the other folders in. Then it looks synonymous already tidy (;
Sure, you can use format c: to move the dos command. If you have a question: y / n, please enter "" y ""
Yes, I've already done that, but I've heard that too many files on the desktop slow down the laptop, so I wanted it somewhere else xD
What? XD
That really can't be true. Since someone told you nonsense (;
Okay thanks for the info ^. ^
If you give me a remote release, I will help you too.
Why is it so complicated?
Why not just cut and paste it into the folder of your choice? Instead of copying and deleting.
Or just drag and drop the files over?!
Can't tell me that you always right click → copy, then right click → paste, and then delete the old stuff - if you could just drag the files over with one click. So sorry but so stupid not even my 60 year old grandma is in line.
In addition, the question is "where" and not "how". Do you really think someone is too stupid to move files?
You took Wtf
It is then empty - at least it only has 2 folders. I have a single folder called "PC" and then subcategorize it like photos and so on. So you always have desktop access to it.
Nope, I have no desire to explain that to you too.
What to explain? Why are you acting so stupid?
Didn't have to explain, it's fine, everyone has their weaknesses.
Now you know that you can just drag the files over.
Ah, that's what you mean. And then what does your answer have to do with the question? He wants his desktop empty, so it doesn't help him to know that the desktop is not a data carrier. Why did you ever comment on that, because that's actually completely obvious?
Okey, some things don't seem to be clear to you here. Read between the lines, yes! Do you really think that someone who knows all keyboards emoji's and hardware terms like SSD is not clear what COPY PASTE is? Lol, maybe you can explain to me the 2 buttons on the device next to the keyboard that people always slide back and forth ^^
Put them in the folder that Windows creates by default:
Explorer - This PC pictures
Or: (drive) - user - your username - pictures
Both are the same folder.
Ha nee, he just wants to know where to put the folder for the pictures.
The question is not "how", but "where".
