Hi. Over the past few days, I have been working on this project involving downloading quite a number of scenic pictures from the Internet. Actually, I didn’t “download” these pictures, but I “saved” them onto a thumb drive. Excuse me, I am not sure if there is any difference between, “downloading” & “Saving.” I always just Right-Click on the picture & select, “Save Image as.” Anyway. I specifically didn’t want these pictures saved on my C-Drive nor in my Pictures folder. Honestly, guys, these pictures are not illegal nor inappropriate, I just wanted them only on this thumb drive & not mixed in with my Pictures folder. After viewing many of the pictures last night in File Explorer & in Pictures (I doubled clicked on some pictures to get a better view), today I first realized when I opened my File Explorer under, Quick Access all of the pictures under, “Recent files,” I accessed the previous night were there, which I didn’t like them being there. But then when I opened my Pictures folder on my C-drive all of the pictures that are on my thumb drive were also mixed up with my other pictures. I never use OneDrive & wish I could completely remove it from my system. It’s not like the old days when whatever was on an external drive stayed there. I believe that I’m not making any sense & am talking out my *ss. I just don’t understand if I have documents or pictures on an external drive, then why when I open them, automatically, they’re saved on my C-Drive? I know that seems impossible but that seems to be what I am experiencing. I even had to delete the pictures I didn’t want in my Pictures folder more than once. I guess I’m hoping that someone will tell me how to make some changes in the Properties folder on my thumb drive. The pictures on my thumb drive are all in one folder, let’s called that folder, “Folder A.” Folder A isn’t shared or included in any other of my libraries. I’m very sorry, I’m merely an average person that isn’t too well versed in using the proper computer terminology. If I come across like a babbling idiot then I’ll expect no responses back;
Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
