"My Documents" duplicated

Hi,

I’m running Windows 7 and I discover that “My Documents” (and some other
sub-directories) are located (duplicated) in three different locations:

Desktop/Libraries/Documents

Desktop/Jerry/My Documents

Computer/OS(C)/Users/Jerry/My Documents

Where should they be?

Thanks, Geri

That is the way Win7 does things and is not an error.

Unlike XP...Win7 uses "libraries"

These are *not* duplicates. The files are in a single place; the
others are simply pointers to it.

They should be where you put them.

You can designate any directory you like as the location of the "My Documents"
folder (mine is G:\stevedoc) and you can add that, and several other
directories to the "Documents" Library.
