Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Here we go, Jon (XP). I'll try it this weekend.
I never expanded my system partition to cover the other empty partition on the drive -- I just didn't feel up to the risk. This, especially since it moves the Eudora mailboxes, should be just the thing I need.
Is there a stable way to move one's My Documents
On XP, if you right-click the My Documents icon on the desktop, select Properties, you can specify the folder location there.
Get the fuck out of town!
XP is good for something...
Thank you!
eta: although that doesn't move the whole Documents and Settings structure, leaving the Application Data on the C drive. But it's giving me ideas...
The TweakUI Powertoy allows you to change the location of all sorts of folders: [link]
How stable is tweakui?
The XP version seems pretty stable. For that matter, the only thing I ever found that broke the 98 version was a Microsoft security update.
Gee Microsoft breaking something for their security, not yours. how unusual.
Well, the thing that it broke was the tweak that lets you use autologon, so it theoretically improved my security, too.
Fair enough.
TweakUI doesn't let you move the whole thing either, and the instructions given by Microsoft fail on the stoopid copy.
