Two problems I don't know how to fix.

(Windows 10 x64 on a SSD)

1.
The User Music folder is located at D:\OneDrive\Music and I wanna change the location via properties the same way I got it there but when I try to move the folder it always shows



While all the others Contacts, Desktop, Documents, Videos etc. can be moved without such a error.
To try fix it I've tried reorganizing the permissions on the folder and even the whole disk but without luck. I've also tried to move it to another location on the D and C disk but it shows the same problem.


2.
The search option in the start menu always shows "These results may be incomplete" I've tried resetting the index by rebuilding it but that didn't work.



Might be something simple to fix but I can't find the problem.

Hopefully someone knows more about these problems I appreciate any help

That is an odd one, With the message itself saying access denied it is either a permissions problem OR something has it locked or open and so it wont let it happen.

Have you tried changing the path to it in the registry or in safe mode to see if it works?

It was a good idea to try the registry. After changing it in the registry the location was successfully changed. Even funnier is that now the bug is gone too and it will allow location changes the normal way via properties.

Looks like someone else had the same problem as my second problem and didn't have any luck with it xD

I've tried all the things he mentioned too.
