Product: ZBook 17 G 3
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hi
I have a ZBook 17 G3 running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.
I was copying some files to my external HD. I don't know what I did, but somehow I changed the Desktop's location to the External drive.
How do I correct this? I see where to change the location but I'm not sure what path to put in the field to get it back to its original locations. :((
Can someone please help me get this fixed. I am panicking.
Thank you!
