Hi,

I always have all my data saved on a different hard drive from the os.

I have already changed the location of document in windows 7 to documents on my D drive, but windows 7 is still putting some info in the c\users\me\documents folder. This happens when I install new programs, not when I save my own files.

How can I totallly over-ride this. Is there a good safe spyware free program like tweak ui for xp that will allow me to tell windows 7 that EVERYTHING that is meant to go into documents will go into d:\me\documents??

Hope someone can help. :D

Otherwise, very happy with windows 7. Everything I have installed on it has worked perfectly, and i'm using the 64 bit version too.

Cheers
 

I nearly went through with that but, as mentioned in the guys post, if you have a lot set up already it involves a lot more steps so I decided to play it safe.

Why did ms stop producing tweak ui. It was perfect for this. I've got the system working well enough anyway, but I'd just like C:\users\me out of the way. I never used it on xp and I have all my backups setup to backup my D drive. I take images of my C drive in case of a disaster, but my D drive is backed up with a much more advanced program as it contains all the important stuff.

Thanks for everybody's replies though.
