Special Folder?? (W2K)

[adulttw]

I want no folder in My Documents folder.
So I remove "My Pictures" and "My Music"
And Goto START then RUN. Type "Regsvr32 /u mydocs.dll" and hit enter

But when I use WordXP,want to slug a picture,
it made a "My picture" in My documents folder.
When I use media player 9,it also made a "My Music"..

So..How can I let them never rebirth,or change their defult path??

For Word, you can go to Tools, Options, and the File Locations tab to change the default Save location.

In Windows Media Player you can go to Tools, Options, and the Copy Music tab to change the default location.

In Tools, Options on Excel it's on the General tab, PowerPoint is the Save tab, and Access it's also the General tab.

Try creating a new DWORD value under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
named My Pictures and create the path to another more desirable folder.

Not sure if it will work or not.

[adulttw]

I succeed!!:)
All I had done:
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\W ord\Options]
"PICTURE-PATH"="D:\\My Pictures\\\"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\W ord\Options\OutlookEditor]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]
"My Pictures"="D:\\My Pictures"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]
"My Pictures"="D:\\My Pictures"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders]
"My Pictures"="D:\\My Pictures"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders\New]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders]
"My Pictures"="D:\\My Pictures"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders\New]
