When I search folder in Desktop under C:, the search results point me to the right path, but at E: instead.
My computer had its OS cloned to an SSD, and the old OS resides in E: now. Maybe something is wrong with lingering registry keys?
This does not happen when I search from the root of C:.

Are you sure you are not booting off the old drive still? – Eddie Dunn – 2015-12-12T17:25:26.647
Yes I am sure. The boot time is around 10 seconds which indicates usage of SSD. – user3802871 – 2015-12-12T18:45:35.650
what does
echo %HOMEPATH%,echo %HOMEDRIVE%, andecho %USERPROFILE%give you? – Eddie Dunn – 2015-12-12T23:11:17.203\Users\USER, C:\Users\USER, C: respectively. – user3802871 – 2015-12-13T00:26:32.240
Oddly I remember clearing search index rid me of the problem for a while, then it came back. – user3802871 – 2015-12-13T00:33:20.783
Funny I was going to mention that next. Seem slike it is cached somewhere... Did you do a system restore or anything that might have caused the old state to creep back in? – Eddie Dunn – 2015-12-13T00:34:18.833
I didn't do system restores. – user3802871 – 2015-12-13T00:38:19.567
ok sorry! I am out of ideas. – Eddie Dunn – 2015-12-13T00:40:38.657
