Question How do I move a Folder from the C drive to the D drive??

[Fred Wax Bean Lasagna]

I keep screwing things up. I have a desktop computer running Windows 10. The computer has an internal D drive with much more storage than the C drive. I had moved the My Documents, Videos, Pictures successfully from the C to the D drive months ago, but I can't remember how I did it. Now I want to move the DESKTOP and DOWNLOADS folders from the C drive to the D drive as well.

Every time now, when I tried to move the location of the desktop from the C to the D drive, it's recreates the target folder. (Takes it over / renames it)

I wanted to move the Desktop folder from C:\Users\Shawn to D:\SHAWN'S STUFF. I want to put the deskop folder INTO the SHAWN'S STUFF folder.

However, every-time I try to do this, it renames the SHAWN'S STUFF folder into Desktop. It doesn't just rename it, it takes it over. The SHAWN'S STUFF folder becomes the desktop. The items that are already in the SHAWN'S STUFF folder (documents, music, pictures, video) disappears when it becomes Desktop.

Again, I had done this before, maybe a year ago, but I can't figure out how I did things differently, or what I'm doing wrong now, I follow the instructions I find online. I have to do a system image restore when the folder is renamed to DESKTOP.

In the image below, PICTURE 1 is pre-moving of the desktop folder. The contents of the SHAWN'S STUFF folder are shown by the arrow. PICTURE 2 is how it looks after "moving" the desktop into the SHAWN'S STUFF folder.

The same was possible on prior OSes. I've done it since Windows 7;

Thanks for the comments. The only thing I can think of, as far as the problem I've been having, is that I didn't create a target folder named the exact same as the folder I want to move. I guess I have to create a folder called DESKTOP first, then choose that folder, and it then "becomes" the DESKTOP folder from the C drive.
I was choosing SHAWN'S STUFF as the folder, ASSUMING that the DESKTOP folder would be created INSIDE of that folder, not BECOME the folder. I will try the newer way and see how it goes

Why do you want to move this stuff?

There may be other (safer/easier) ways of getting to where you want.
