Vista Ultimate - 'User' Folder Location

No tried that.

Can copy the entire folder to D; but Windows still points to C as the location. Can change personal folders location to a folder on D;, but this still leaves hidden files etc on C;. Thus meaning there are 2 Users folders. Have managed to change the Public folder location to D;, with some registry tweaks, but this doesnt seem to work for the entire folder.

any more suggestions

 

Changing folder location

Hi Kenneth,

To change the location of a personal folder (e.g., Videos), follow these steps:

1. Right-click the personal folder, and then click Properties.
   
2. Switch to the Location tab in the dialog box.
   
3. Click Move....
   
4. Select the destination folder path and then click OK.
   

Your apps will know the location of the shell folder, whichever drive it is in.
