Common Places Like XP

02-26-2008

In Xp there was a way to add 5 locations that were called common places.
These were places that you went to all of the time and they would appear in
all drop down menus when trying to open a file from any program. Is this
possible with Vista?

Places bar is replaced by Favorite Links in Windows Vista.

How to customize the Favorites Links list in common file dialog boxes in Windows Explorer in Windows Vista:
