Accidentally merged my Downloads and Desktop folders - help!

Hey everyone,

I’ve got an SSD and an HDD in my rig. I wanted to move my Downloads and desktop folders off the SSD and onto the HDD to save space, but I managed to screw up. While trying to move the desktop, I accidentally pointed it to the Downloads folder. Now Windows 10 thinks they’re the exact same thing (check this out: https://postimg.org/image/ekdobn4y3/)

The obvious fix would be to just point the desktop back to its own spot, but the two are stuck together now. Every time I try to move the desktop to a new location, it drags the Downloads folder right along with it.

Here’s the breakdown:
Right now, they look like this:
Desktop: D:\User\Downloads
Downloads: D:\User\Downloads

If I try changing the desktop to D:\User\Desktop, this happens:
Desktop: D:\User\Desktop
Downloads: D:\User\Desktop

Anyone have a clue how I can unstick these and get them back into separate folders?

Why doesn't Windows 10 have some kind of refresh option? I'm running 7 and usually just a quick system restore fixes everything for me. Isn't it basically a 99% guarantee that this is just some glitch in Windows 10 preventing you from rolling things back

Honestly, the simplest way to handle this is just to hop into your web browser—you know, whatever you're using to surf the net—and dive straight into the settings! Once you're in there, you can easily dictate exactly where you want your files to land, or better yet, you can actually toggle an option to have the browser ask you for a destination every single time you start a new
Downloads. Isn't that just much more organized?
