+Change D: to U: (for æsthetics)
+Copy contents of C:\Users to U:\ directly (in such a way that it's not U:\Users, but U:\, holding the profile folders)
+Rename C:\Users to C:\Users.old
+Symbolically link U: to C:\Users

This is the minimum needed. However, "previous versions" will not work over symbolic links, so you'll need to:
+Adjust C:\Users to U: in all cases under \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
+Do the same for all profile subkeys to ProfileList key

BONUS MODE: shrink U: so that you can make a fresh empty partition 2x the size of C:, then set up Windows [Server] Backup to do a nightly differential incremental with full VSS support to that partition. Do not assign a drive letter to the partition (unnecessary). This is the real reason why you'd need to move C:\Users off C:, so you could perform full bare-metal filesystem recoveries on C: without hosing your user profile data.

WARNING WARNING WARNING!!! This trick is known to break upgrades. You'd need to revert this trick before doing a version upgrade. Also, this is tested by me and known to work really well on as late as Win7/Server2008R2, but no later. Attempt at your own risk (and with backups made beforehand).

You need to install systemD

Delete D: and expand C: using disk manager.

>Open D
>create 'Documents'
>go to 'Documents' on C
>copy contents
>paste to 'Documents' on D
>edit quick link to 'Documents' on D

can't you just copy or move the files over?

anyways disk management allows you to mount another partition as a subdirectory as long as both partitions are ntfs. right-click D and pick change drive letter. click add, then mount it where you want.
