We apologize for the inconvenience caused.
- The reason the default printer keeps changing is that Windows automatically assumes that the last printer you used is your new favorite. So, when you switch from one printer to another, Windows changes the default printer to the last printer you used.
- Do you have a favorite printer? Is Word not choosing it for you automatically? Use Control Panel to tell your computer that you want to pick your own default printer. Press the Windows key + X, and then click Control Panel.
By default, Windows 10 has a lot of its universal apps set as the defaults. One that you might not be a fan of is Microsoft Edge is the default for PDFs. Change the Windows 10 Default PDF Reader.
I'd be glad to help you.
In Windows 10, there is an easy way to change the default save locations for your files under Settings>System>Storage.
Just search from the Start Menu for 'default save locations' and then click/tap the top search result:
That will open the settings page for the system storage and default save locations:

The top half of the page shows the connected hard drives on your system and below it you can use the drop down menu to select a new storage location for your personal files.

You can choose just one of them or all of them although only saving certain types to the secondary hard drive defeats the purpose of saving files on a separate hard drive.
Unfortunately, the change default save locations in Windows 10 does not prompt you to move the files from one location to the other. This means you can end up with files in two different locations.
Please follow these steps in the links, given in the Microsoft KB articles, mentioned below:
