hi guys, me again.
sons laptopc drive only has 10% free but d drive is empty.
Is it possible to transfer photos over from c to d and what,s the best way, without re-formatting drive to free up space on c drive?
also, if possible, how easy is it to access them later?

    If you click start then computer and get a screen with the drives showing, click D then make a folder for photos

    Open the main photos folder on C, click edit, click select all, click edit click move to folder, select the folder you created on D, click move

    Should be the same for anything you want to move, if you want to access them just click start, computer, D and then whatever folder

    Leave programmes on C otherwise anything else can be moved to D
