title: How to change the desktop folder from "Desktop - Local" to a different folder on mac?
body: <p>The files that are displayed on the desktop come from the folder</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>/Users/USER/Desktop</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I am wondering if there is any way to be able to change that so the files that are displayed on the desktop come from a different folder? </p>
  
  <p>The aim behind this is to use Google Drive (<a href="https://www.google.com/drive/download/" rel="noreferrer">https://www.google.com/drive/download/</a>) and create a "Desktop" folder in my Drive account allowing me to sync and access my Desktop from anywhere without using as much storage locally with all the files at the desktop being displayed from</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>/Users/USER/Google Drive/Mac Desktop</p>

  <p>Appreciate all the help in advance!</p>
