So the situation is that I have two drives. one which is a drive i recently installed windows 10 one drive which has windows 8.1 installed. the drive that has windows 8.1 installed has hit a problem where every time i boot it it blue screens. runs a scan and repait then boots back to the windows 10 drive. this wouldn't be a problem except i forgot to move all the files from the desktop folder before installing the windows 10 drive and now i cant access it at all. i was wondering if there was a way to access the desktop folder of the drive with windows 8.1 on and moving it without booting into it on startup. sorry if this is a little confusing, any helo would be appreciated

thanks for the suggestion. I can still access the Windows 8.1 drive on the windows 10 drive however the Desktop folder, the only folder that i need either isnt there or doesnt show up.
