Saving Notepad to My Files Folder
Hi,
I created a Folder, in My Documents, Called, 'My Files'. However, it used to automatically bring up 'My Files' when I clicked on, Save, when using Notepad. Now, it automatically brings up, all the Folders in My Documents. How can I configure so it will automatically, just identify, My Notepad file, should go into, 'My Files.' ?? -- Thank you, Jean |
