I moved the location of the Documents folder to save space on my SSD.

When I run ls in my home directory, I get ls: My Documents: No such file or directory.
Moving the Documents folder back fixes this.

I've also moved the Downloads, Music, Pictures, and Videos folders to my HDD, but only the Documents folder gives this error.

I'm on Windows 8.1.

Did this start happening when you moved your Documents folder? I haven't moved mine and I don't have the error.

I installed cmder after moving my Documents folder, but moving it back fixes it, so I'm assuming moving the folder causes it.

EDIT:
After fiddling with the alias for ls, I found that only ls --color gives this error, but not plain ls.

EDIT 2:
I fixed this issue on my machine by replacing the ls.exe from the bundled msysgit with the one from https://u-tools.com/msls.asp.

Hopefully the newer tools included will fix this as we update cmder dependencies.
