Default Move GoogleDrive

Win XP Pro

GoogleDrive is buried in MyDocuments.

How can I move it to a more visible position in Windows Explorer.

Yes, I know I can access it via the taskbar but I want it easier for me.

Default Move GoogleDrive

AIOEUSER,

How can I move it to a more visible position in Windows Explorer.


Two distinctive ways ways:

1) Find the folder and cut-and-paste or drag-and-drop it to where you want
to have it

2) Make a shortcut to where the folder currently is.

Both have their potential drawbacks.

For #1 it is that when you move the folder elsewher there might be
configurations pointing at he old location, and than the whole thing will
not work anymore (mostly solvable by moving the folder back -- but not
always).

For #2 it is that a shortcut doesn't fully behave as the item its actually
pointing at (can't remember the exact ways in which it differs)

Hope that helps.

Regards,
Rudy Wieser
