| Guest | Altering location of 'My documents' In WinXP right-click/properties solved the issue of moving the document folder on fx a server drive. In Vista is it similar - but in Vista there is a complete folder structure to 'move' (music, photo etc) [for each user]. Is it possible to 'move' the whole structure? Regards Lars |

| Guest | Re: Altering location of 'My documents' Hi, I don't believe there is any "one shot" method of moving all the user data folders, you have to move each of them individually. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "lars" <regamoks@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:263DD1B1-94F8-4913-81E1-C9A8B613BF69@xxxxxx

| Guest | Re: Altering location of 'My documents' My advice is never to store anything in "My Documents". Use a normal directory structure that meets your own requirements. Use standard characters and underlines (no spaces) when naming directories and files. That way, when you want / have to change computers and / or operating systems, you can do so with minimal hassle. Also, you can easily make multiple backups on external disks. It's surprisingly difficult to get M$ (and computer geeks in general) to understand that stuff like family photos should to be available to your grandchildren and beyond.
