After writing a document, we save the document. But Microsoft has a default folder for saving the files which may not be the location that we prefer. This is how we can change the location:

In MS Word:
Open MS Word. Go to Tools>Options>File Locations. Select ‘Documents’ under ‘File types’ and click on Modify button at the bottom. Now choose any folder in another drive to which you want the files to be save by default. That’s it.

In MS Excel:
Open Excel. Go To Tools>Options>General. You will find a text box titled ‘Default File location‘ showing the path to the default My Documents folder. Just change the path to point to a folder of your choice.
