Firstly, I had to check both the ~/.bash_profile & the /etc/profile files & modify the '''PATH''' variables where I had added paths that were now incorrect. Most users here won't have changed anything in these two files, though it is just too easy to do, to not check them for safeties sake. When looking at these files, check the PATH line for anything that relates to your moved storage directories. You probably won't have any differences unless you added them. These lines in my files follow, you will see where I have replaced the original paths with /mnt/bdata :

Then I needed to change the paths for what are considered to be the standard default /home/<user>/ storage directories - Downloads, Video, Music & so on. I had previously changed these paths, also, I don't want to use capital letters in the beginning of their names.

If you have more than one user account on your system, then it would be best to use & edit:

{{UserCmd|command=nano ~/.config/user-dirs.conf}}

If the above file doesn't exist, create it. Then copy mine (just below), editing it to suit your system/desires. Having only one user account on my Manjaro setup, I delete the previously mentioned file (if it existed anyway) & modify:

Once you have done this, check that you don't have new (likely empty) default directories in your ~/ that were created by the above file(s) on boot. Any such void files should be deleted after you have modified either the ''user'' based '''~/.config/user-dirs.conf''' or the ''root'' based '''/etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults''' files. '''~/.bashrc''' may need some paths changed as well, depending on what you call from it.

I also had to tell qBittorent, Firefox (& the few other browsers I'm testing) where their particular download directories had moved to. Any other applications that were set to save data into the documents, or any other directory that has moved (or been created as a default, in either of the two directories above) will need to have their config's modified too. & so it goes...
