Just like the title states, I want to make all my files on my Windows partition native to my Ubuntu partition.
Right now, I can access all my documents, pictures, etc. while in Ubuntu by:
- Clicking on "Files" on the launcher.
- Clicking on "OS" on the left-hand side.
- Clicking on "Users".
- Clicking on the appropriate windows user folder and, viola, all my files are there for me to access.
To be clearer, I want to make it so that I:
- Click on "Files" on the launcher.
- Click "Documents", "Pictures", etc.
and the appropriate files (that are already on my Windows partition) are there for me to access.
Why I want to have all my old files in Ubuntu natively:
- In case something happens to my Windows partition
- I may get rid of Windows in the future.
I know I can put all my files on an external drive and put them into Ubuntu from there or copy them from the OS and just paste them into Ubuntu's file system, but I want to know if there's a dedicated file transfer system between partitions or something.
This question is less one of work around solutions and more an investigative one in which I'm curious to know if a native dedicated solution exists already.
Copy them from the OS is pretty simple, I'm just curious if Ubuntu has a dedicated method.
I look forward to your help :)
