Take note that even if you try to use the File History to restore the User folders, it still won’t work and you won’t be able to move them back to their previous locations nor restore the folders back to their previous versions and it would only state that they are not available. So if you’re wondering how you can unmerge the User folders, read on as this post will guide you on how exactly you can do that. It could also be that you had dragged and dropped a user folder to another user folder by accident.

However, in some cases, while changing the path to another drive, for instance, the D drive or any folder, the Windows system recognized it as a hard drive as well so even though the files will be saved on that folder, it will appear as a hard drive in the Windows Explorer or look merged with another folder. This is probably to make sure that the files stay safe in case the system suddenly crashes.

The Windows 10 system allows users to change the default location of the User folders to another drive.
