- Are you saying that there is no Location tab on the Folder Properties window of the user Documents folder in its current location? If you are denied access to the Location tab, then you either require admin access to this system or there is something else blocking/protecting it.

Yeah and it's strange cause isn't the main account you use the administrator? Or do I need to log into the one that says Admin? - @wolfkomoki1 - A quick Google search reveals the missing Locations tab is common if you don't approach Documents > Properties in the correct way.
If you are using Libraries to get to the Documents folder, it will not show the location tab.
Go to Documents from your user folder. The location tab will be there.
In my case, on Win 10 anyway, it also works if I right-click on the Documents shortcut in my file explorer window on the left side panel under This PC. - wolfkomoki14 years agoSeasoned Ace

Okay how do I do that? Do I go through C or? - Cororon4 years agoRising Traveler

You can use Windows to redirect your entire Documents drive to E if you want. That's a good way to relieve stress on a too-small C drive (like 128 GB) that was really only designed to carry the operating system. That way your TS3 user game folder is still in Documents so the game is happy, but the entire Documents directory is really on E and not C.
I think the game will take longer to load if you put the Documents folder on a spinning hard drive. Maybe not so much if you don't have lots of downloaded content, though. - @Cororon - It depends on whether either of the drives are an SSD, they both are, or neither. That is, as long as both drives are internal ones.

You missed that I said if you put it on a spinning hard drive. :smile: Lots of people have Windows on an SSD and a spinning HDD for storage.
I have the game installed on D : and Documents on C: but those are just two partitions on the same 1TB SSD.
