'Location is not available' error after cloning and replacing crucial SSD data disk
Hello Acronis Community,
I bought a crucial SSD MX500 1To to replace my old one of 500 GB of my Asus laptop. This disk is only for data and some software, the window system will keep remeining on my C: disk.
After cloning properly with Acronis True Image for Crucial and replacing the old one, I got many 'Location is not available' errors in Explorer, like that one:
My desktop shortcut icons are also blank and some of my software can't find the file directory folder to run.
I'd like to add that my document folder and some software are installed on this hard drive.
I don't understand because I thought the cloning process would exactly copy the disk with all the path, etc.
Do you have an idea to fix that problem to be able to replace my disk without having to reinstall everything ? For now I just went back to my old hard drive and everything work properly.
Thanks a lot for your help,

Hello Steve,
Thank you a lot for your answer, and indeed I change the default documents folder path as with softwares.
So you guess it’s only because of the letter avec the new cloned disk that doesn’t match the previous one? It's surprising that it cloned everything expet the letter...
