You can transfer all your User files to your HDD without moving everything from the C drive. Some programs won’t let you, or they’re hard to move, so it’s best to proceed carefully.

This could disrupt some of the programs you have running because they rely on specific locations. Changing the directory might prevent them from accessing necessary files. However, copying only the Users folder usually works without issues. This type of folder typically contains items like Downloads and My Documents.

Restoring widows to that driver ensures it becomes the default option.

You can relocate the videos folder to free up space, and you're in control of that decision.

Transferring files such as videos, images, and downloaded content is completely acceptable. Programs, drivers, and similar items cannot be moved.

Avoid relocating entire folders; simply cut items from one folder and insert them into another.

Click the folders, shift their position, and enable file relocation. Once done, all personal folders should disappear from the C: drive.
