@abc1603430712 The Drive letter is set by the Windows user. The E: drive could be anything from Google Drive, a USB or a secondary HDD within the PC.

You can just make a folder on the desktop or any other location on your PC. That is entirely up to you where you want it.

How do you access E drive? I am not understanding how to create a new drive.

    Hi @VixeyFox4, An E drive is typically like an external drive. Most PCs are C: or D: depending on the letter you change. So, E: would show up when you hold Windows + E to bring up the PExplorer folder.
