How to Move Your Downloads Folder to Another Drive in Windows 11

Windows 11 assigns default save locations for files you download or new files you create on the system. Typically, the default save locations are on your local drive, which is typically called the C: drive. However, you might be running low on local disk space, forcing you to save files on a different drive.

Windows groups all your downloaded files and stores them in a “Downloads” folder. If you have downloaded any file from the internet, you must be familiar with the Downloads folder. While most people don’t change the default location of the downloads folder, Windows offers you an option to do that. In this tutorial, we have detailed how you can change the default download location in Windows 11.

The Downloads folder is one of the important folders in the Windows operating system. All files downloaded with the help of a web browser like Google Chrome are automatically saved to the Downloads folder.

Because the Downloads folder contains all downloaded files, the size of the folder can easily run into GBs quickly. If you do not want to lose your downloaded files when you reinstall Windows 10/11 or want to free up the space on the Windows 10/11 install drive, you can move the Downloads folder to another drive.

This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating systems (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education) from all supported hardware manufactures, like Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Alienware, Razer, MSI, Huawei , Microsoft Surface, and Samsung.
