In windows 10, I recently changed the location of the Desktop from my C-drive to an external drive. While this worked, this also caused the items on the taskbar to disappear. Before this change I had 5 items on my taskbar. Now when I restart, my taskbar is empty except for the windows button.
1) Is there a way to fix this issue so I can still access the my local taskbar directory? I know it is located at %AppData%\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pined\TaskBar and I can confirm it is still populated with the correct shortcuts.
2) Is there a way to change the taskbar folder location to a location on a drive? Since this is a follow up to the first question, I did not see the point in creating another question.

i can only imagine this being possible if you happen to find and change the registry key which holds the path to the start menu folder.
i highly doubt you should change it.
