How do I create a custom folder like "My Documents" ?

This creates a shortcut to the folder, which is ok to quickly access to it
with a double click but it's not the same as having a special folder under
the "Desktop" root in Windows Explorer.
For example, after you paste the shortcut to the Desktop, you cannot see it
anyway under the Desktop root in the folders window of the Explorer.
I keep trying and experimenting with the registry. If I get to something
interesting I will tell you.

Well try this.

Open Windows Explorer and navigate to your chosen folder.
Left click hold and drag it to the Start button - release it when the
Start
Menu appears.
You should now have a cascading folder shortcut on the top of the Start
Menu.
It shows up in Windows Explorer as a Folder but is actually a type of
shortcut i think - hopefully the type of shortcut you wanted to create.
Now right click the Start button and Explore All Users.
Locate the newly created shortcut in
\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Start Menu
Cut (or Copy) the new shortcut to the Desktop or wherever it's required.

Does this do the job?

Martin.

Hi everybody !
In Windows XP, how do I create a system folder that behaves like "My
Documents" but is linked to a destination folder other than
"C:\Documents
and settings\..blabla.." ?
I have tried this
http://www.jadwigo.nl/tools/customsy...ysfolder4.html
but, as the author says, it's not enough.
Can anyone help me ?
Thank you very much
Mirko



Can't you just customise the present My Documents folder?
You can rename it and change it's target folder to whatever you
desire.

Right-click My Documents and select Properties.
Here you can change it's default settings.

Saro' anche maleducato ma tu sei un coglione. Se non vuoi leggere i

This practice is unpolite and rarely useful, but being the case,

visit and of which you ignore rules and manifest.
If you googlesearch for "netiquette" you'll discover also the word
"quoting" that's avoiding annoying readers with unnecessary lines of text
which can easily be recovered from older messages.
I'm astonished that so many people, even MVP, simply press reply button

I'll send this post to any other reply on my ng.
Even if you are a newbie guess wich one

Doesn't it appear also in the folder tree under the Recycle Bin - right at
the bottom?
