This is the reason that for many years (decades?) I have always added a D drive partition for all the file storage and remapped the documents/pictures/videos/etc to the D drive, even on a new, preloaded computer I would shrink the C drive and add a D drive partition for the files. It saved my backside many times both personally and professionally unless the entire drive goes boots up.
As long as the partition is readable it can usually be accesses with a Linux live/rescue disk to make a last minute backup.

>The measure eases restrictions on all but the largest banks. It raises the threshold to $250 billion from $50 billion under which banks are deemed too important to the financial system to fail. Those institutions also would not have to undergo stress tests or submit so-called living wills, both safety valves designed to plan for financial disaster.
