Missing files after changing which drive letter my download hdd has.
As it says in the title I have changed the drive letter from D:\ to E:\ . I have changed the setting of my new download folder. I try to point the downloaded files I have to the new location but it doesn't change. If I check again it thinks the location is still on the D:\

You will have to reset the location of each task, as changes to the folder locations are NOT applied to loaded tasks retrospectively.
